Taylors Mistake Surf Life Saving Club (TMSLSC) celebrated
a significant milestone in their 105 year history on Sunday
(7 February) with the official opening of their new
clubhouse, ten years after the earthquakes damaged the
previous facility.
The clubhouse is the first of three
surf clubs in Canterbury to open this year, with South
Brighton and New Brighton due to open theirs late 2021. All
surf clubs were damaged in the earthquakes, and have
received NZ Government Shovel Ready Project Initiative
funding to assist after insurance negotiations and
fundraising left them with shortfalls.
For Taylors
Mistake, their clubhouse was deemed untenable by engineers
