News Letter - December
2007
In an endeavour to keep members informed of what’s
happening in the club a news letter will be sent out
each month.
Even though we have had light conditions we have
only missed one race for the year.
Last year, at this time, we were battling fresh and
gusty w/nw ‘s .
Given the fact it is a busy time of the year we are
managing 6/7 boats a week which is great .
The handicapping system has been put onto the web
site and there is a copy on the notice board at the
club. Also the minutes from each monthly meeting will
be put on web site and a copy kept at the club house
for those who wish to keep up with what is happening
at our meeting ..
Item’s of interest to club members:
Suzie and Margaret have approached Charles from the
bottom hotel and he has kindly let us run raffles
on Saturday nights from 5.50 till 6.30 in the bar.
Suze & Margaret have put together a roster so
please call Suzie for any more info .
State titles although with limited wind were a great
success, thank you to all those who helped in particular
the catering crew Saturday’s dinner and Sunday’s
bbq, a big effort by all. The club have long sleeved
T shirts left over from the State titles. They are
$ 10.00 each. If you want one please give your money
to Helen .
Clean up Oz day is coming up on Sunday March 2nd.
Also great to see David Robb out on the water with
the yngling, keep up the good work .
On a lighter note Peter and Niekas wedding went to
a well organized plan as we know it would. Their day
was perfect in every way with no doubt the best wind
we had had for the year (that’s ok pete we forgive
you - though some others might not!)
Also Randall and Mary Fitzgerald’s daughter,
Tahnee, was married last weekend out at Skenes creek.
Another perfect day weather wise, congratulations.
Neil Melville now has a trailer sailer, a 25 ft Noelex.
Let’s hope to see it out on the water soon.
Christmas is not far away let’s hope for a bit
more wind and a few more boats out on the water
Have a merry Xmas and take care
Russell
LIFE IS GOOD BE HAPPY COME SAILING.
