-----This Saturday is Fremantle Sailing Club Open Day
We would like all sailors to invite a friend for the day.
We need some Dinghy section volunteers to operate the canteen and we need volunteers to BBQ the sausages for gold coin donation for yummy sausage sizzle.
We need some junior/senior sailors available to take visitors out to “try sailing” in the optimist or pacers, it would be really good if all sailors who received of FSC travel grants within the last year to make themselves available to assist.
We will also need parents to stay and assist with the racing and coaching for both the morning and afternoon sessions.
Please below for further details
