A month ago today we were honoured to partner and work alongside the Peregian Family & Friends helping bring the Key Elements together for the annual Spirit of Peregian "Gala Under the Stars" on the Anniversary of the 2019 Peregian Fires and in reflection of 9/11 - 20th Anniversary. It was a memorable evening filled with empowered connection, collaboration and community, whilst raising funds for the future re-build of the Peregian Beach Surf Life Saving Club.

Sending a heartfelt THANK YOU out to all who were involved and contributed to this truly special evening, from our local Noosa Council through to small local businesses, suppliers, contractors and fellow industry professionals mentioned in the post below and also the amazing volunteers who gave their time to support this event to become apart of the team.

Peter Kuruvita is the amazing chef who will be joining us at the Spirit of Peregian "Gala Under the Stars" on the Anniversary of the 2019 Peregian Fires. We are looking forward to welcoming Peter, who is passionately community-minded and had this to say about the Peregian Beach Surf Life Saving Club:

"None of us will forget the 2019 bushfires. It was incredible to see not only how vulnerable our community could be to natural disaster, but also the amazing strength of the emergency services and community to pull together and support one another.

And in a seaside town, there is no better home for this community spirit that the local surf club. From housing our volunteer lifesavers to teaching water safety to our youth and as a home for community events. I am proud to be involved in promoting the future of Peregian Beach SLSC for the generations to come"
