Mullaloo Surf Life Saving Club, a dedicated volunteer organisation providing opportunities for life.

With a very proud history, of just over 60 years and a success built upon strong family foundations. The Club’s vibrancy stems from an ever-developing culture of belonging, where each family member can find something of interest, regardless of age or ability.

With the funds available the AFD was able to purchase a new specialised Surf Club outboard motor for the Surf Club.  This assistance came at a good time for the Mullaloo club as it engines were approaching the end of their life and would be unreliable.  The funds available also enabled the upgrade to the surf kit fitted to one of their other rubber ducky engines.
