Hi All,

I hope everyone is enjoying the school Holiday's.

Reminder of our July pointscore next Sunday the 18th. 7.30am check in for the 1st heat @ 7.45am

The second biggest night in our clubs calander is on this coming Friday Night at The Beaches Hotel in Thirroul with 6 of our best looking male members going Head to Head on the Catwalk against 6 of The Thirroul Butchers Rugby League players to determine which club has the best looking blokes! Helped down the runway by the girls from the 2010 Miss Northern Beaches it is sure to be a massive night and one not to be missed. We need to get as many of our over 18 members there to support the boys, and with The Beaches Hotel contributing financially to our club we need to show our support.
I hope to see you all there on Friday night and Sunday @ pointscore!
Christian

Special mention to :
1. all the grom's who took on some solid waves that were way over head height.

2. Billie Melinz who learned the hard way that fibreglass is harder than your head. Billie ended up with quite a gash on her head but hung around and recovered remarkably after her third bacon roll for lunch!! gutsy effort Billie.

3. the over 45's who surfed howling onshore mess in the near dark on saturday arvo. bd managed two clean barrels and made the rest of us look ordinary.

4. Shaun Ando for muscling up in the water when DP nearly got killed by an out of control kook who launched his board off the lip straight at dylan half destroying his new board and almost drowning dylan. it's a good thing the groms didn't hear shaun's suggestions to the other guy!!


5. likewise to Eddie m. for mentioning to the two guys, continually burning the microgroms at the point at seal rocks, that if they did it again he would drown them both. apparently the kids had no problem getting some waves after that!

6. Bravest man on camp award to Adam w. for actually taking joel home to face the music with joels new hair style.

Many thanks to RIchard and jean for the food. it was great. christian however did still managed to slip some hot dogs into the menu!

Huge thanks to Pete J. for driving the bus. it is a big responsibility and Pete does a great job.

Christian has booked for next year. date out asap to allow the organised ones to book time off for next year.

"Raising the bar at Scarborough"
The Scarborough Boardriding Club celebrated their 2009 season last Saturday night to a packed house at their major sponsors The Beaches Hotel Thirroul. With the club celebrating its 25th year in the Northern Surburbs this year it was an important night and a future celebratory Boardriders Ball is planned for 20th Feb .

With the Scarborough Club currently boasting some of the Illawarra's/ NSW's Best Junior Talent, Club President Christian De Clouett said" Both our Under 18 and Under 14 division's this year along with our Girls division was of the highest standard the club has ever seen and with the group of kids we have now in the club I feel we are breeding success and a real competitive culture that these kids will take into their individual surfing pursuits and feel we are definitely raising the bar at Scarborough." This is related to both Riley Killham and Kalani Ball of our Under 14s placing in the Top 10 in the State this Year with Rachel Campbell also finishing 3rd in the State U18 Girls.

The night began with the clubs next generation, 25 Micro Grommets being awarded generous prize bags from this divisions fantastic sponsor Gromz Surf Shop Thirroul.
Christian stated 'You are looking at the future of surfing in the Northern Suburbs.." and whilst all talent was acknowledged particular standouts in the group were Billie Melinz, Keanu Miller, Joel Wood and Luke Rice.
