A message from your Dinghy Captain, Jan Anderton…
Apologies on your late calendar of events for 2023. Life sometimes gets in the way!
As well as the dates below we’ll be running 2 “discover sailing “ sessions a month, probably on the third Tuesday eve & Saturday of every month, throughout the season. It’s a great way to introduce family, friends etc to sailing as it’s a month temporary membership of LYC all for £20 (this also covers the £5 race fee for non members, when competing on keel boats)
“Discover Sailing “ will include all of the fantastic opportunities at LYC. So not only can they take to the water at Crosby but, once they’ve found their feet, they can try keel boat racing on the Mersey, social events & training sessions.
The first Saturday will be a test day for the newish Topper fleet to try them out so we can whittle out the best ones!
I’m still struggling with the new booking in system but should be sorted in a day or so, any problems please either DM, mail or message me & I’ll advise. My number etc is in your club diary.
Looking forward to seeing you on the water, catching sunsets & creating memories!
Thanks, Jan
