Good Evening Bowmoor!
Firstly, I'm really pleased to say that we haven't had the anticipated weed growth so far this year as the lake dye (food grade and approved for use in the SSSI management plan) has proven effective. The calendar will be updated to remove the lake restriction on the 14th, 15th and 16th as a result. We may still need a cut later in the year so will continue to monitor.
I want to thank Al Keck for organising the Life Jacket 50+ sunscreen dispenser (photo below) that we installed just inside the club house door over the weekend - please do use, it's excellent stuff.
I also want to thank Dave Lynall, David Fewings, Sally Heathcote, Nigel Fletcher and the whole team running the excellent 8hr race last weekend, results and write-up below. Fantastic day!
Finally, many congratulations to Richard Leftley who became the Hadron H2 National Champion last weekend. Race report here, looks like they had some pretty tough conditions at the WPNSA. Well done Richard!
Next weekend, don't forget we have member training, ladies who launch and cruising Saturday. Should be great fun!
In a few weeks we have RIAT weekend, I'm particularly looking forward to the Under the Smoke Regatta, more to follow on that closer to the time!
Finally, Mike Read has sent over the poster for the 2nd August Lions Charity Open Water Swim. The team are working hard to keep the Lions Community Minibus on the road, so please support.
See you at the club,
Simon |
