Weekly round up
Fleet reps can you please send this on
Howdy
all,
It's a big weekend for dinghy sailing, with many of the FSC
sailors
competing in their State Championships.
FSC is hosting the 420
class on the Saturday and Sunday
Hilary's is hosting the optimist class for
bronze, silver and gold sailors,
SAT- MON
SOPYC are hosting the lasers,
4.7, radials, full rig, and masters. SAT-MON
All classes require that you
are members of the class association and have a
silver card ( yachting WA
website) to enter.
Matthew will be going to the optimist states to
support FSC sailors (bronze
will not be ocean racing and will have
support vessels from Hillary's).
Bronze will also need to tell Hillary's so
they can allocate you a plastic
opti. Call me ASAP if they tell you they have
run out.
Teams racing takes a break for the next 2 weeks. Therefore there
will be no
training this week. Thanks to Ben for his coaching. We now have 3
wins from
4 race nights, with 1 more to come.
Twilight Sailing: I have
attached the information for this. I think this is
am great initiative by
FSC. If you are a sailor that enjoys sailing, but
doesn't want to compete at
a serious level then this could be for you. The
evenings are long and balmy
with just enough wind to challenge. There will
be a support boat but no
coaching as this is about fun.
Thursday night continued to be busy
with great demand on club ribs. This
resource needs to be managed so if you
wish a rib, please tell Steve Darke
and the HM and drop me ( if AB is
not here) an email. It's not going to be
possible in the short term for
coaches and sailors to be flexible in their
training days.
Thursday
night also saw the first of our dinners. I have attached a photo of
us all
enjoying our food and drink. Thanks to all those that came and
cooked, then
stayed and ate, and then washed up! It was a great evening and
yes, to all
those that asked, we will be doing it again very soon!. The
twilight event
above will be an excellent opportunity to socialise plus
another reason not
have to cook rush home
The bosuns led by Peter Blaxell, are busily
sourcing and sorting marks,
buoys and anchors and building some more optimist
sail racks. Thank you for
organizing this, it will be great to have
everything ready to go. If you
have any spare time on Saturday, wander into
the sheds and volunteer.
Laser sailors can you please nominate a "Laser
Representative" someone to
represent you on FSC Dinghy Committee, to forward
you all these important
emails, Also how is the "Social Function" coming
along
Can you please send this to others that you think may not be
getting this
information, still haven't got a full email list.
THERE WILL BE NO COACHING OR RACING (EXCEPT 420 ) AT FSC THIS
WEEKEND
Cheers

HI Keith,
Can you please Email
this to all Junior and Dinghy sailors?
Dear Sailors
I am
writing to invite you to twilight sailing for Dinghy at Fremantle
Sailing
Club. This is a new evening to get out and enjoy sailing with no
pressure to
race or competing with anyone. I would like to get as many
sailors out as
possible from Finns and Lasers to Optimists and Pacers. There
will be a
charge of $5 per person to help towards having a safety boat out
on the
water. After the sailing we would like you all to come to the sunset
deck
where BBQ packs and drinks will be available. This is not just for
young
children but all dinghy sailors. Rescue boats will be on the water
from 1615
till 1815.
Please come and enjoy sailing for a bit of fun and
socialising. Any
questions please speak to Steve Darke in the sailing
office
sailin...@fsc.com.au or call 9435 8809
If possible please let me know if you are attending so I can get an idea
of
numbers.
Kind Regards,
Steve Darke

EVENTS MANAGER
