Cheerio and thanks

Pete and Ali pulled down the shutter on the galley for the last time after the New Years Day brunch.

As clubs caterer's for the past three years Peter with his wit and cheerful smile have produced food for functions, socials, parties and corporate do's. Club commodore Kathy presented them with flowers and a bottle of gin at the punch party and thanked them for their work at the club and wished Peter a happy retirement.

One of the highlights of New Years Day at the club apart from the spectacle of the racing in the river is the lifeboat spirit draw, this year the draw raised £350 for the local life savers. All of the prizes are donated by your flag officers and general committee members.

A cheque for monies raised for the RNLI during the year will be presented at the annual dinner dance and prize giving at the Pavillion.
