Thanks to the team at Auckland Westpac Rescue Helicopters for dropping in last week for some training with our Counties Energy SAR Squad.

We regularly call upon their services along our coastline, so the opportunity to extend our knowledge and capability around helicopters builds a stronger team.

Summer is on its way and we will be ready!

Something a bit different to put in the diary.

Kahawai Point are backing our club to be part of the first Kahawai Pt Coastal Classic, on Sunday 4 October at Glenbrook Beach. Our crew will be out marshalling on the day, and we'd love to see plenty of club faces on the course as well.

There are three ways to do it:
5km Community Walk, 10:35 am. Everyone welcome, dogs on lead
5km Kids Run, 10:30 am, under 15s
8km Coastal Classic, 10:00 am
Every single finisher gets the 2026 tee. Food trucks on site afterwards and prizegiving at 12.

$40 adults, $30 under 15s, or $110 for a family of four. Worth knowing the tee alone is a $30 shirt, so the morning itself works out at about ten bucks.

Entries close Sunday 20 September and there are no entries on the day.
