A big thank you on behalf of the Club to the eleven Members who turned up to Saturdays Working Party. Much was done to the paintwork externally in spite of the weather which held to mid day and a further date will be planned later to complete this essential work.

Dinghy taster sessions from 10am – 3pm cost £3 per person. Come and meet Club Members, view facilities, discuss types of dinghies and have a test sail with an experienced helm.  An opportunity to discuss and apply for Membership.  Refreshments will be available throughout the day.

Our recent weekend of RNLI events over the 26th and 27th April including race entrance donations resulted in a total of £187.07 being raised towards the work of this charity and the Club have received a letter of thanks from their local Branch Treasurer. Thank you to all those who generously donated items for the sale, home made cakes and their time. Hopefully we can make this an annual event at the Club. Items remaining after the weekend were donated to Dorothy House to raise money towards the work of care and support they provide within our community.

Ching Kilby is hoping to run an art club at Shearwater Sailing Club on Wednesday afternoons. The sessions will be open to beginners as well as more experienced artists and non members will be welcome. If you are interested and would like to know more then please contact Pat Putt via the Commodore’s link elsewhere on this website and your details will be passed on.
