Thank to the wonderful team at The Sunrise Foundation - Gisborne/Tairawhiti for their expertise and guidance in assisting the club and Jude in helping make Rocky’s wish to continue his support of Midway for decades become a reality.

🌊 Honouring the past, securing the future πŸ’›

Midway Surf Life Saving Club has launched an endowment fund with Sunrise Foundation, seeded by a donation from Jude Hall in memory of her late husband and club life member, Rocky Hall.

The club then added a generous contribution of their own to establish the Midway Surf Life Saving Club Endowment Fund, a lasting investment that will support lifesaving, surf sport, and community for generations to come.

Club Chair Jared Phelps says it’s about making decisions now to strengthen Midway for the future. β€œWe want to ensure Midway can keep doing what it does best – providing a safe, welcoming place for families, young people, and beachgoers to connect, grow, and stay safe in the surf.”

With membership numbers soaring, this new fund helps underpin vital services while supporting the next generation of surf athletes and nippers. 🌞

Follow the link below to learn more about their fund or to actively help grow it with a donation. Any donation, regardless of the size helps support the club, both now and for future generations.

What a fantastic start to the season! πŸŒžπŸ–οΈ
A huge thank you to the over 150+ Gizzy kids and their families who joined us this morning for the first Nippers session of the 2025/26 season at Midway! It was amazing to see so many familiar faces returning all just that little bit taller and keener and to a huge welcome to lots of new faces too.

We also want to give a massive shoutout to all our parents, volunteer coaches, and committee members who helped keep things running smoothly β€” especially for handling over 250 sausages at the BBQ! Your support and energy make mornings like this possible.
The future of surf lifesaving at Midway is looking bright, and we’re so excited to be on this journey with you all.
