Helensburgh
Stanwell Park Carnival
On
Saturday 2nd November Helensburgh Stanwell Park SLSC hosted
a very successful junior and senior carnival.
Wave
of the day went to Luke Taylor from the Helensburgh Stanwell
Park Club. Whilst coming 3rd last in the board leg of the
U/11 Ironman he paddled onto a monster. Luke described the
moment "I could hear my age manager Chris Crilley scream,
we always have big waves at our beach and I was so excited
to catch a big one. Everyone on the beach was cheering"
Go Luke! The wave carried Luke straight through to 2nd place
at the end of the board leg. He finished the event a proud
4th place. Well done Luke.
Picture
above shows Luke Taylor running up the beach to the cheers
of all.

greatful for the job done by Les Nichols and Don Allan in

day and then packing the course up in the afternoon while
