Dear Monument Australia visitors, we are a self-funded, non-profit organisation, dedicated to recording monuments throughout Australia. Over time the costs of maintaining this website have risen substantially (in fact they are probably larger than those of many companies who exist for profit). In the past we have borne all the costs associated with maintaining the website but we are now having difficulties in paying the monthly expenses.
If Monument Australia is useful to you, please make a donation to keep this historical and educational resource available. Your help would be greatly appreciated.
50 Years of North Caloundra Surf Life Saving ClubPrint Page 
The plaque commemorates 50 years of service by the North Caloundra Surf Life Saving Club. The club is now known as the Dicky Beach Surf Lifesaving Club.
In 1950, the club commenced with two-story fibro structure on the headland near the Neil Street Rocks. The club changed its location after the original club house burnt down on 21 February 1976 and is now located at the beach end of Coochin Street.
The plaque mentions incorrectly that the first clubhouse was burnt down in November, 1974.
