Today we mourn the loss of Port Campbell SLSC's Ross ‘Po’ and Andy Powell, who tragically died during a rescue last Easter Sunday.
Both were experienced, respected members of the club and Port Campbell community - our thoughts are with the family and community at this time.
Surf lifesavers around the country have a simple message for these Easter holidays "stay safe, stay home"
