 Photo-gallery of racing on 16th May

Racing on 16th May 2010 Because of an injury, Karen Matthews was on the beach on 16th May rather than jumping at the pointy end of their RS500. She has taken excellent shots of racing action and sent a few to the club website.

See the photo-gallery on this website. Thanks Karen!

 Increasing adult participation

On 4th and 5th June, we have a very special event coming at LSC. This is aimed at women who would not normally sail or lack confidence. Hermione Garner from the RYA will be starting the event on Friday evening on the 4th June. The evening will be a social allowing Hermione to introduce herself with a meal to follow.

On the following day (Saturday 5th June) there will be coaching session. The whole point of this is to introduce you to sailing within your comfort zone. More details will follow later but we would like to get an idea of numbers attending. Could you let the sailing secretary know if you are interested sailingsec@lancingsc.org.uk. This will be a great event but need your attendance to make it successful.

4th & 5th June. Put it in your diary.
