  • Posted 24th April : Sent for and on behalf of Jeanette (vice commodore) Hi everyone. Don’t forget that the spring BBQ is on Saturday 3rd May. Please let me know before Friday the 25th of April so food can be ordered. Any one who wants a vegetarian option please let me know. The cost will be £8 per person, payments to be made by BACS to the club account. Chris will need volunteers on Friday the 2nd and on Sunday the 4th to put up and take down the marquee. Best wishes (Ian Law : media editor)
  • Posted 19th April : Sent for and on behalf of Commodore Dave Washington. After the marquee has been taken down for the Spring Social Day, there will be a short Commodore’s Cruise to Chester Basin on 4th May, lasting about a week. This will be a leisurely cruise. For those that are thinking of going, please could you let either Dave or Jeanette know, so that they have an idea of numbers. (Best wishes, Ian Law : media editor) See poster for further details.

Some points from recent council meetings
These have also been circulated to members in Ian’s monthly club newsletters

      • Chris – Land & Buildings. Could members please not open the electrical box in the clubhouse. On Sunday 1st December it was found left open. If there is a problem with electrics, then please contact Chris as a matter of urgency. (Many thanks – Ian Law media-editor)
      • Chris – Land & Buildings. Please could members NOT wedge open the door on the toilet block. We do not want a situation where the block gets flooded again.
      • Chris – Land and Buildings : Do not overload the electricity boxes near to the boats. We have had 1 box burnt out. This is a fire risk and very dangerous.
      • Chris – Land and Buildings : There is to be NO parking on the grassed area from the locked club gate through to the clubhouse and also on the peninsular between the mainline and the Dorfold moorings. Please park on the Dorfold only, and face the same orientation as the boats, to maximise space.
      • Could ALL members please remember to sign in when they arrive at the club?
      • Please could you keep the area by your boat clean and tidy and, if possible, remove any weeds (Please do not use a weed killer spray)
