Set up on Friday afternoon and early Saturday morning. We will have the big gazebo on site.

This is always an excellent day out for the Club, with lots of water for sailing.
A date for Your Diary
Working Party - Tuesday 25 June
The rescue boat house on the landing Stage is in urgent need of some TLC. - Repairs are needed to the roller shutter door, the whole of the top needs re-felting and some Cuprinol on the rest will help to stave off ravages of the weather in the future.
Mike Hodgson has scheduled a working party for Tuesday 25 June. The help of able bodied Club members will be welcomed. Meet on the landing stage at 10 a.m. Wear old clothes and bring whatever tools you think might be of help.
To work on the boat house roller shutter door, we may have to get wet, so anybody who can come with a set of waders, or lend us a set for the day, will be even more welcome.
If you can come, please let Mike know.
