Summer Camp 2010
Friday 19th – Sunday
21st June
It’s nearly that time of year again to enjoy another Summer
Camp weekend at the sailing club – quite possibly the most exciting and
enjoyable event of the WRSC sailing and social calendar. This year will be the
5th Summer Camp weekend and another great opportunity for WRSC members
and their friends and family to enjoy both sailing and non-sailing activities
in a relaxed and welcoming environment. This is a clique-free zone – all the
adults and kids muck in together to make the weekend a success – camping, playing,
socialising, sailing, preparing food, and generally swelling the bar profits (the
adults that is!). You don’t need a family or children to attend – everyone is
welcome.
With our own fleet of Opis, Toppers and Larks and qualified
RYA trainers to provide assistance to beginners and less experienced sailors we
can provide on the water activities. There’ll also be some more experienced
sailors around to pass on tips to those keen to build on their own skills.
Even if you can’t join us for the whole weekend, this year
we are combining the camp weekend with the very funny and successful Indoor
Games event. So, if you’ve missed swinging a bottle between your legs or
dropping pennies from your derriere (!) do join us.
The ever popular Spring Bank Regatta returns on Saturday 29th May with a slight change to the format. The event is over 2 days and will include the Ruislip Trophy for the Albacores.
Free camping will be available from Friday to Monday and everyone is welcome to camp for the whole bank holiday weekend. In true West Riding style, the bar will be open from Friday evening. Food will be available from Saturday lunch time through to Sunday lunch time, includin Sunday breakfast.
There will be a BBQ on Sunday for those planning to relax and stay on, and you can pre book your place by e mailing

The club would very much like to thank all those who turned up to help on Saturday 8th May for the Workday.
The day started well with a cuppa and a bacon buttie to help the workers on their way! Many replaced the fencing around the laser compound whilst others attacked the hedges and brambles with cutters and strimmers.The electricians got to work on the heaters inside under the expert supervision of Andy Hoey! Graham had great fun charging round on the lawn mower being very careful to negotiate round the flag pole and the goose.
Thanks to Lynn Sales who provided a huge pot of home made soup for lunch
- just what the troops needed to give them another energy boost!
All in all a great day with a great atmosphere! Lots of work was completed around the club well done everyone.
Work Day 8th May
There will be a work day on Saturday 8th May starting at 9.30am until around 4pm. Please make the effort to attend. We need to finish the laser compound fencing so please bring, wire cutters, angle grinders, gloves etc.. We also need people to bring ladders and extension cables.
If enough people attend we may do some hedge cutting so please bring down hedge trimmers, saws and pruners.
Please come and attend and you might find a little treat at the end of the day.
