Doin it for Darcy

On May 29th we held pointscore number 5 in amazing conditions at Coledale again – our apologies to Coledale locals for holding three club events at Coledale in one month, we promise to consider other venues for next month!

The waves were offshore all day for all divisions and some insane surfing went down. A few highlights: Mannix Squiers taking no prisoners on his long deep barrel that helped him to a win over Shaun Warren 2nd and Aidan Chamberlain 3rd.

The Open Women’s final was called as one of the best ever seen at the club. It was a see-sawing affair with nothing in it as the lead changed seemingly every time someone caught a wave, but Shyla Short won in the end, Kasey Hargreaves 2nd & Talina Wilson a well-deserved 3rd. And a crowd favourite is becoming the 12 & Unders with so many frothers, with Ashton Mekisic taking the win over Jesse Fitz & Kobi Omara 3rd.

Then on June 19th we hosted an event “DOINITFORDARCY” to support long-time club member Darcy DeClouett and his battle with cancer. It was unbelievable to see so many there in support at Wombarra Bowlo, the DeClouett family were lost for words.

Darcy is now doing well and hopefully the event will keep his spirits up and provide some valuable funds for the journey that lies ahead. The event would not have been possible without the incredible support and efforts from local businesses and individuals.

Plus the little committee of helpers: Michelle Morgan, Luke Campbell, Shane DeClouett, Nic & Fin McLaren, Glen Cahill, Talina Wilson, Christian DeClouett, Shaun Warren, Ian & Tanya Pepper.
