Bottle Returns

Your bottle returns really benefit our society. If you live in the lower mainland of BC you can take your cans, bottles and juice containers to the following Return It Centres:

Tsawwassen Encorp Return It Centre located at 5636 12th Ave (beside the Petro Canada Station on 12th Ave) and have the proceeds go to #13 Roberts Bank Lifeboat and we get a cheque for the returns.
Ladner Encorp Return It Centre located at 4930 Elliot St, get the money for your return, put it in an envelope available at the counter, mark #201 Roberts Bank Lifeboat on it and place in the blue safe box on the wall, we later get a cheque for the returns. The staff at the centre will show you how to complete the procedure.

Community Relations

Our society participates in many events throughout Delta. Over the past few years we have been involved with:

Pancake Breakfast with Santa for Ladner Business Association
Carol Ships
Communications Festival
Tsawwassen Sun Fest
Delta Emergency Preparedness Weeks
Delta Public Works Open House
Remembrance Day Services
Commemoration of George Massey Tunnel
River Mania
Emergency Communications Exercises
Ladner Harbour Cleanup
Boating safety and education events
Boating Safety Checks through certified courtesy inspections
And many others...

Our volunteers donate countless hours of their time to train and actively participate as a significant part of the front-line response to marine distress in Canada. They must also volunteer even more of their time to actively raise the funds necessary to keep us afloat - and that's no small order. As we are not funded, the society relies on donations to help run the vessel. This includes operational costs, equipment, fuel, training, vessel maintenance, insurance, licencing (eg radio), ship's phone and many other items necessary to keep the vessel ready and able to operate on short notice as a dedicated response vessel.

We realize these are challenging financial times, but rest assured your donation does make a difference. Help us help you...our objectives still remain the same:

Save lives
The safety of those on and around the water
The security of our community
Provide support to the Canadian Coast Guard and local police and fire agencies
Maintain professional standards
To provide a multi mission capable vessel or vessels and trained crews
