As a young girl Lorraine helped the hard-working Ladies Committee raise much-needed funds at caterings and cake stalls. In 1994 she obtained her Bronze Medallion. Since that time, besides being an active patrolling member and state official, she has been heavily involved in club administration and junior development. Her organisation of ‘nipper’ camps to Victorian clubs was ground-breaking and still relevant to this day as a way of motivating young life savers to see how big our movement is and what the opportunities are for life-long involvement.
