Raffle in aid of the Chesil Trust
The club held a raffle during the Henri-Lloyd Weymouth Regatta in August in aid of the Chesil Trust, which helps young people make a start in sailing. Last year we donated money for youngsters to have one-day taster sessions. This year the money raised at Weymouth Sailing Club, together with that from an auction of promises at the Royal Dorset, is going to enable two of the most promising children to progress to RYA Level 2. The picture shows Peter Hopford, chairman of the Regatta Committee, handing a cheque for £657.00 to Bill Ludlow, chairman of the Chesil Trust, together with the two lucky beneficiaries and their instructor. Many thanks to all those members that bought tickets.
