ABW Sept 2018-1

the Provincial Sports Office, this is the first year
that they have been involved, but we hope this will
become a permanent annual fixture.
It showcases that we
are among the top
training facilities in the
Philippines, also it gives
us the opportunity to
work in the development
of our youths.

We are also looking to
commence monthly
training sessions for kids
on a monthly basis and
are currently in discussions
with resorts to provide their
facilities free for the kids.
Our 2019 event will, we
hope, again see a whole
day of events just for the
kids. Lifesaving sports are also a great way to keep
your lifeguards fit, learn new techniques and new
innovations and it showcases lifesaving to the public,
you meet new friends and learn from each other and
most importantly you make new contacts and have
the opportunity to reward those who support you,
not only your competitors, but also the sponsors, if
you look at our relationship with Active Boating and
Watersports Magazine, it commenced from a chance
meeting at a Lifesaving Sports demonstration we
did at the Hobie Challenge in SBMA, way back in I
think in early 2015, this showcased to you what we
do and what our commitment and objectives are,
without this we may never had met and gained your
valuable support.
I thank you also for the continued coverage that
you have give not only to us but to drowning
awareness and prevention, ours has become a strong
partnership, as you see the need for what we do.
Thanks also to our Hon. Governor who has now
installed our organization onto the Provincial Disaster
Risk Reduction Management Council so we can share
our thoughts and expertise in the reduction of risk,
especially in the aquatic recreation areas of Zambales.
