Clean Up Australia Day – This Sunday

Thanks to the leadership of Jonathan Stone, DBSC is once again participating in Clean Up Australia Day this Sunday, 1 March. There is a low tide at 7.30am and so we’ll be cleaning the beaches and parks near our club from 7.00 - 10.00 am on Sunday morning. 

Jonathan encourages members to “Please keep up the strong tradition of club-member support: Clean Up Australia Day is an important part of the Club’s contribution to the community at large. We have a great site on the Harbour, but our continuing presence there requires long-term acceptance by the community.

Just come to the Clubhouse on the day, ready to spend 30 minutes clearing rubbish from Steyne Park and the beaches to east and west. The beaches are particularly littered after the recent rains.”

A big thanks to Jonathan Stone for running this initiative for many years. Jonathan, who has overseen this event at DBSC for many years, will be retiring from this capacity after this year. Luckily for us, going forward, Kate McHugh has generously offered to continue this great tradition at our club. A big thanks to both Jonathan and Kate.
