The Early History of North Burleigh SLSC

As November slips away, we look back at what was a HUGE month not only in the Annual Calendar but also in the Club's history.

The 60th Anniversary Celebrations held on the 13th, 14th & 15th November was an obvious highlight for all that attended but also was a great chance to reflect on the stories that make up our great Club.

With thanks to Bill Chivers,, the early history of the Club has been collated and updated. Over months (and years), Bill has been in contact with many of the 'Old Boys" and thanks to their anecdotes and memories, we are able to present to all our members the History of North Burleigh Surf Life Saving Club.

Stay tuned to more updates to the history page of North Burleigh SLSC including stories from past and present members.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank all the Members - Old Boys, past & present members who made this weekend a huge success:

• Club Manager - Matthew Dagg & Functions Manager - Karen Lee and the Supporters' Club staff
