This weekend I had the wonderful opportunity to attend the Moruya Lions Club changeover luncheon at the Moruya bowling club. Congratulations to Kathy and Des on your hard work and efforts in our local community. It was an honour to do the toast, and I look forward to seeing the work that the Moruya Lions Club do in their fundraising effort, such as the 2017 Lions Charity Golf Day that was held at the Catalina golf club last year.

On Saturday evening I attended the surf lifesaving presentation at Moruya Heads. It was a bit chilly until everybody got there. I congratulate Sue Hunt, Director of Administration. Award recipients included Andrew Holt, Ryley Spoedler-Hanlon, Cheryl McCarthy, Melissa Meaker, Paul White, Jackson Blake, Ruth Burgess, Joe Halsey, Luella Boulton, Alec Radford, Scott Senior, Craig Senior, Riley Miles, Oscar Reedy, Christian Filmer, Ryley Stafford, Scarlett Whitaker, Ellis Beecham, Callum Elliott, Ava Weymans, Ainslie Scully, Emma Prowse, Nick Huggins, Andrew Scullt, Ben Potter, Nimmitty Ford, Liam O'Neill, Jess Hoyland-Meaker, Liam Russell, Tony Vella, Neil Innes, Batemans Bay Phoenix Ladies—good on you, girls; 180 years of boat rowing—Pambula Surf Life Saving Club for their two-day branch final award, and Michael Weyman, Shaun Pike, Andrew Edmunds, Anthony Bellette, Ken Bellette, Mick Bellette and Ben Ralstone for the rescue of the year for that rescue at the Moruya River Mouth, where, unfortunately, one person lost their life. I congratulate the Moruya Surf Life Saving Club and, finally, to Tathra Surf Life Saving Club for your amazing work just after the Tathra bushfires.
