A Call To the Colours
The first races of the forthcoming 2011 sailing season are scheduled for Sunday, commencing at 9.30 am. The need for volunteers to complete preparations for the new season is now urgent.
A working party is planned for the afternoon of tomorrow (Saturday) to prepare the starters' box, clean up the dinghy park after a winter's neglect and service the club's fleet of Optimists. Please make every effort to attend and contribute to these essential preparations.
The forthcoming Royal Wedding
The clubhouse will be open from 10 am on Friday, April 29, when the ceremony will be shown on the big screen. A buffet lunch will be provided.
On Saturday, April 30, there will be a Team Race for a Royal Wedding Trophy followed by a celebratory meal commencing at 8 pm.
On Sunday, May 1, races for the Royal Wedding Cup will be combined with those already scheduled for the U.D.T. Trophy.
Darts
The local darts league is approaching the end of the season. In this, the sailing club's first venture into a darts league, it is the team that nearly wins, but falls at the final hurdle. The morale among the darts players remains commendably high despite a growing reputation as the 'nearly' team.
