Apologies but the scheduled Valentines Night Dinner has been cancelled due to Gas works/upgrade that will be taking place at the Club on 12/13 Feb. Should the work run behind schedule then the Kitchen will be unable to prepare a 3 course meal on Saturday 14th and this is a risk that we cannot afford to take. The next theme night will be a dinner on Friday 6th March and I will update you when the menu has been finalised.
Regards
Theresa

I am sad to advise that Roy passed away on January 23rd. Roy and his grandfather ‘Pop’ Wiggins were long time members at Halfway Yacht Club and Roy was a member at TBYC for some years too.
Roy instigated the Petal Plate race and presented the trophy when he was sailing secretary at Thorpe Bay.
The funeral commences 2pm, 11th february at St. Andrews Chuch, Ashingdon then to Crematorium followed by the wake at Hockley Lawn Tennis Club. Any flowers to be sent to A R Adams @ 117 High Street, Rayleigh.
