Killcare Surf Club will hold a Community Day at the start of the summer season on September 24.
Visitors will be able to see their local surf club in action with training rescues and beach safety.
Off the beach there will be defib and resuscitation demonstrations.
There will be lots of fun and informative activities for all the family with a sausage sizzle and a bouncing castle.
Last season the club performed more than 32 rescues and over 640 preventive actions.
It needs more patrollers and a new training course starts in October.
Patrolling on the beach is a way to give back to the community, with current patrollers aged from 15 to over 70.
Find out what is involved and how you could get fit and have fun while keeping the beach safe.
Other community emergency services organisations will be present including the Killcare RFS and the Maritime Services.
It will be a great opportunity to ask questions and get information from local emergency services organisations.
Other ways to offer support are to join as a community member and enjoy the great social benefits of being part of the club.
If you have young children, the Nippers have great fun every Sunday morning while learning water skills and safety.
The Killcare Surf Club Community Open Day will be held from 9am-noon on Sunday, September 24.
