Parents good news, the bar will be open all day this week from 11am, so you can enjoy lunch and sit on the balcony in the sun for the afternoon whilst keeping an eye on the children. Enjoy the week.

Many thanks to all of those who turned up early on sunday to paint the changing rooms, repair chairs and tables, clear boat park, and carry out various jobs around the club.
For those of you that missed out don’t worry we will have another one in the new year.

I found this next to the race hut blackboard and put it indoors before I locked up.
