Update from Social Committee - Jan 2026
Firstly, A very Happy New Year from Social Committee for 2026.
To close off December, the Children enjoyed their party and the arrival of Father Christmas. Thank you to Gemma and Sharon for helping to run this event, whilst I did a little Kitchen work! Thank you to Santa and his team of helpers as sadly the weather was not very kind.
AGM:
For those who attend the AGM, Mulled Wine and Mince pies were on sale in support of GBR BLIND SAILING CHARITY, there was also a small raffle and I am pleased to advise that a donation of £80 was raised and sent to the Charity. Dont forget to come along on Thursday 22nd January to support the Sailing Committee with Tina's evening talk on her experiences with Blind Sailing.
