Sthoee Lifeguards Dublin, Ireland

Lifesaving @DCU, @Claremont beach Howth, @home @sthoee.com

Hi all,

We've written and held back communication after communication, week after week, for some time now.

This has been an interesting time for many of us and , for others, unspeakably sad. So many of our current and past members are in front line professions. It has been humbling to hear stories.

Many reached out to sthoee during the period of lockdown, you will be happy to hear the crew have continued to meet up online weekly plugging into sthoee crew as far afield as Australia and the States. And we have had many online sessions including a memorable online pizza party on three continents to celebrate Richard's engagement (congrats!).

Beach Lifeguards had qualifications extended and we are now moving forward on a couple of fronts.

Over the next few weeks we will be sharing plans but, as you can guess, there are very real logistical challenges.

So there are a few housekeeping things we need to start with.

First of all we need you to be sure you are on the public mailing list. If you received this by email you are, just sit tight.

If not please register on the blog (link below) [mailings are cross published on the blog to if you choose not to subscribe]

In the next week or so we will be issuing a questionnaire to gather your thoughts around some ideas / plans we have and to give you the opportunity to ask questions and develop our (and your) ideas together with your input.

We have a clear idea of where we want to get to but this will be a collective journey

The other important thing is to only take sthoee information from formal communication from us. All events , meetups and start up information will be published publicly, nobody will receive information from any other source. Promise.

Stay safe, swim on lifeguarded beaches, wear a mask, wash you hands

Look after yourself, your loved ones and your community

Remote lifesaving? We've a challenge for our Lifesavers

Hi all, got cabin fever yet?

We hope this finds you and yours safe and well

The sthoee crew met online instead of at the pool last night. Everyone is in good form and is safe and well.

We've been talking about the importance of getting updates from the HSE and going easy on the social media!

This week we are starting planning our open water programme, this pause and we and to be ready.

So what can you do this week.......

Well we have a challenge for all sthoee swimmers. We want you to design a new rescue aid, think big, you know sticks , you known ring buoys and torps. We want you to think of what would make a great rescue aid.

It can be a design based on what you use already, using something else as a recue aid or go wild use jet engines and drones.

You can work alone, with your family or another sthoee swimmer (but only online or on the phone!)

Mail your plan , your name , with or without a drawing to Inventors@sthoeelifeguardsdublin.com

Before Sunday at 630

Happy St Patrick's day, take care of yourself, your loved ones and your community

Sthoee

Sthoee@DCU

Hi All,

Events have overtaken us, the pool is closed up to the 29th so we are now on a break until the week after at the earliest.

Look after yourselves, your loved ones and your community.

Beach lifeguard registrations are staying live. We'll cross that bridge when we get to it.

We look forward to an evening when we get everyone back together again and can order a ridiculous amount of pizza

Keep checking in , keep in touch , keep safe

Sthoee
