Notice Board     A place for notifying members of important matters

Notes from the Bridge 11.6.10 A message from Admiral Green to all members:

Attendance at shows: With an ever increasing number of members - some 70 - I have noticed that we have a hardcore supporting the events and that is it. Do try to come along.  Upton Warren is another case in point. I have the feeling that County Hall is an easier option on the third weekend and so the crowd dwindles at Upton. Bit divisive!   I feel that as a 'Band of brothers' this is a great shame.  Can we all support Upton/Shows rather more, please?
Membership: A quorum of the committee have had an informal meeting and would like the members to consider restricting the membership to its present ceiling of about 70 and that applications from now onwards should be a little more formal, as it is in most other organisations.  Please make your thoughts known to me in due course so that your committee can consider matters formally.

The sun will shine on Sunday 18th July at Upton Warren Sailing centre for our BBQ. 'Jed' will be in charge of the grub ably assisted by our chairman---Ian.   The cost will be set at a reasonable £2.00 a head. Please ensure you pay before you eat. For those who eat without paying the entertainment of the day will be provided by our 'walk the plank' plan. Please bring along a chair. Assistance for the set up will be appreciated. Normal kick off time of 10.30 or thereabouts but eating time will depend on our chefs.

What happens if the weather threatens is to be decided.

Thank you everybody - Admiral Ian.
