The General Committee at TBYC would like to invite you to a new members evening at the Clubhouse on Thursday 16th August from 19:30 onwards.

As this is our regular cadet night the evening will be completely informal, but will give you a chance to meet other adult members and cadets.

The Commodore and some members of the General Committee will be there to welcome you and help with any queries that you may have regarding the Club facilities etc.

You are probably already involved with the sailing activities at the Club, but, if not, this will be a great opportunity to get acquainted with other members and cadets before cadet week begins.

For those of you who are novice sailors, or who have not started sailing yet, we hope to have a Pico in the dinghy park to demonstrate how to rig our Club’s favourite cadet boat.

Whether you are an active sailor or just enjoy watching the kids on the water we hope that you will come along and meet some like minded people.

I would appreciate it if you would let me know if you can attend the evening. My phone number and e-mail address are on the back of the sailing programme.

Regards
William Daly
Membership Secretary

On Saturday 30th June between 2.00-5.00pm, TBYC will be celebrating the conclusion of the first weeks play at Wimbledon with a Strawberries & Champagne Cocktails afternoon.  

We’ll be serving bowls of fresh strawberries and cream with a choice of Champagne Cocktail or Pimm’s, and hope to be able to enjoy some live action from Wimbledon on the club’s screens, or relax on the balcony in the sunshine!

I would like to give a huge thank you and well done to all those involved in the organisation of the Summer Ball 2012.

Those include, the team that set out the awning, tables, settings and flowers etc. A huge thank you to Mick Kilkelly who served the most wonderful food in a timely and professional manner. A great many thanks to Stephanie Bradley who took on the task of the overall orgaisation of the event – which was a total success.

To the members who attended last night I salute your generosity and party spirit – we raised a stunning £ 730 towards the club’s new olympic rib – whilst dancing the night into the early hours of today.

A great event well organised and well enjoyed by TBYC members – Well Done All

Pre-order your wine and get 10% discount!

Due to the size of our current wine list we do not stock a large amount of each wine, but re-order on a regular basis.  Therefore, to avoid disappointment on the evening of the Summer Ball, and to get 10% discount, we have introduced a wine pre-order system, that allows you to select the wines of your choice from our wine list prior to the event.

The pre-order forms are available to download from the link below or can be collected from the bar.  

These must be completed and paid for no later than Monday 28^th May 2012, to ensure that you get the 10% discount

If you do not complete the pre-order form, wines will still be available to purchase on the evening of the Ball, at full price, but the selection may be limited, due to overwhelming demand on the night.

Thank you.
