Oppie News - 1st Febeary,2012.

Hi All,

I would like to welcome you all to a new year of Oppie sailing in Sutton.

We have a packed calendar between Sutton Club Racing and IDOAI events not to mention fun sailing and coaching throughout the season.

First up is Baltimore Spring training starting on the 13th of February to the 17th - I know it is short notice but those of you who attended last year will know what a great event it is. - see details on the
IODAI website http://www.iodai.com/live/1468.html

Dates for you Diary.

At the end of March we will have a rigging session at the Club this we hope will encourage people to have their boats ready and sea worthy for the new season.

Team racing

Pico team racing starts in March so we look forward to seeing you all for these fun practise sessions :-)

House keeping

Hopefully your boats have been under cover for the Winter and any repair works are well underway. Remember to pick up your boat parking permit for 2012 when you renew your Membership.

There are only a couple of small rules for boat parking and these are there to ensure your boat is safe and for the consideration of other members.

  • All boats must be returned to their allocatedd boat parking space in the Rack.

  • All boats must have working launching trolleys.

  • All boats must have a proper working cover.

  • I recommend www.kwik2me.com for covers.

  • All boat parts should have your name and sail number clearly marked on them.

  • It is easy to lose or get bits that all look the same mixed up. including the covers.

    Parents

Any parents willing to help out with training etc always welcome please contact me on 0868467129

Look forward to seeing you all again


Mandy Kelly
