OUR ORIGINAL "BUY A BRICK" – A LASTING LEGACY!

Many of you will remember our original Buy a Brick fundraiser, which helped raise much-needed funds for our Club's training room.

Thanks to the generosity of our wonderful members, families and community, this fundraiser played an important role in supporting the development of a space that has helped train generations of Kawana lifesavers.

As our Club continues to grow and our facilities evolve, we wanted to reassure our original Buy a Brick supporters that your contribution has not been forgotten!

The names from our original fundraiser have been proudly preserved and are now displayed on a dedicated feature wall in the main area of our Training room, recognising the people who helped make it all possible.

With our new Buy a Brick fundraiser now underway to support the next chapter of our Club's development, it's a lovely reminder of just how much our community has contributed over the years. If you are interested in our new Buy a Brick head to our website https://www.kawanasurfclub.com.au/shop

To everyone who purchased a brick in our original campaign, thank you! Your generosity is part of our Club's history, and we're proud to continue recognising your support.

Once a part of Kawana's history, always a part of Kawana's future.

Friday Flashback | Raining Days
Proudly sponsored by ELITE Lifestyle Properties

"With the rain setting in and our KWSLSC Nippers heading to Rainbow Beach for competition this weekend, we thought we'd share a little throwback to some rainy-day Nippers training!
A bit of rain has never stopped our Kawana Nippers from getting out there and giving it a go!"

There are a few familiar faces in this photo, including the late Carl Schmidt, who was such a valued part of our Club's history.

Good luck to all our Nippers competing at Rainbow Beach this weekend!

We're also incredibly grateful for the ongoing support of our sponsors. Quite simply, we couldn't do what we do without them. This week, we're proud to recognise our clubs major sponsor ELITE Lifestyle Properties. Elite style properties also sponosr our Nippers Comp Team!

What a weekend for our Kawana Blue Stars! 💙⭐❤️

🏆 At the Coolangatta Gold, our team of four Masters ladies completed the team challenge, taking FIRST in their age division and finishing as the fastest women’s Masters team!

🚣‍♀️ Our Youth boaties kicked off their season in rough conditions at Dicky Beach. Well done, girls!

👏 Our new Masters ladies surf boat crew tackled their first-ever carnival—and surely took out best wipeout! They climbed back in, finished their races and placed THIRD overall. Huge congratulations!

So proud of all our competitors for their grit, teamwork and determination this past weekend, especially in those trying conditions! 💙⭐ ❤️

A BIG THANK YOU TO THE BUDERIM FOUNDATION!

We're incredibly grateful to the Buderim Foundation for supporting Kawana Waters Surf Life Saving Club through their 2026 Community Grants Program!

This generous grant will help us purchase new Nipper boards, giving our youngest members the equipment they need to build their confidence, develop their surf skills and, most importantly, have fun in the water! 🏄‍♂️

Our Nippers are the lifesavers of the future, and support like this makes a real difference in helping us nurture the next generation of volunteer lifesavers.

This year, the Buderim Foundation awarded an incredible $132,000+ to 18 community organisations, and we're so proud to be one of the recipients.

A huge thank you to the Buderim Foundation, its donors and supporters for investing in local community organisations like ours. Your generosity helps us continue doing what we love – keeping our beaches safe and inspiring the next generation! 💙💛

Proudly sponsored by Logic Solar

"Looking back through our Nippers photos over the years, one thing has never changed – lots of smiling kids having fun on the beach! And if you were down at Kawana last Sunday for our first Nippers session of the season, you would have seen that some things never change!"

Recognise anyone in this photo? Tag them below! We'd love to see where some of our 2010 Nippers are today!

We're also incredibly grateful for the ongoing support of our sponsors. Quite simply, we couldn't do what we do without them.

These fine specimen are Sprotty, Clarkey, Dean, Jen, Scherfy, and Priesty - the core of our Kawana Training Team.

New bronzies, SRC intensive camp, hundreds of proficiencies, and countless hours spent training new and returning lifesavers — there’s a lot that goes into keeping us qualified and ready to patrol.

Thank you for your time, knowledge and considerable patience. We’re grateful for everything you do, including asking us to do it again until we get it right.
