Carri to Club
Save the date for January 4 2025.
Held on the first Saturday in January, the Carri’ to Club is a swim, run or walk event organised by the Normanville Surf Life Saving Club.
Entirely volunteer run, proceeds from ticket sales and donations support the Normanville Surf Life Saving Club’s beach patrol and training programs.
The event offers participants 4km, 2km, 1km and 400 metre swim distances, and a 4km run or walk option.
Staged along South Australia’s most beautiful beach and finishing at the iconic Normanville Surf Lifesaving Club, the Carri’ to Club is a great all ages community event.
Whether you’re looking to satisfy a competitive urge, challenge a friend or just enjoy a swim, walk or run, the Carri’ to Club is a great way to kick off a new year.
Thanks to our supporters
The Normanville Surf Lifesaving Club would like to thank all volunteers, the Yankalilla Council, Damian Hamilton at Cornershop Design, and the team at James Print for their support.
