An encouraging turnout enjoyed a great morning's racing on Sunday. Unfortunately, I do not have the results to hand. More next week.
County Regatta
This year it is Tenby's turn to host the annual Pembrokeshire Yachting Federation County Regatta. This takes place tomorrow. A large turnout is anticipated, with a great variety of dinghy classes being represented. After the pursuit race, the participants will be treated to a mouth-watering Terry Evans BBQ. To finish proceedings off in a musical manner, we have acquired the services of the well-known local band, Loose Change, headed by Will Scott. They always entertain. On Sunday, July 1, the annual round Caldey race takes place, which will include dinghies and cruisers. Will the record time of 44 minutes be broken this year. Watch this space. As always, these events don't just happen. Hence the usual plea for anyone who can offer any assistance either on or off the water. If you are able to help, even at this late stage, please contact the commodore on 813397 as soon as possible.
Blues Jam Evening
What a superb evening! Tenby Sailing Club was certainly the place to be last Wednesday. The musicians who participated treated a very enthusiastic audience to an evening of great music. The music was varied and very entertaining. Thanks to Terry Evans and Will Scott for co-ordinating the evening. These evenings get better and better - why not come along to the next session, which is scheduled for Wednesday, July 18.
