This is a video of the interior of the Centre as at early November – amazing!!! The works are on schedule so fingers crossed we’ll be back to sailing in January – watch this space!
The Beginners Courses and Taster Sessions have proven to be a great success. So far, thanks to the cmmitment and hard work of Ricky, Margaret, Pete J and Wendy, more than £2600.00 has been raised through these initiatives and we are delighted to donate £2000.00 to Hengistbury Head Outdoors – HHO – not just a financial donation but a gesture of our Club’s total commitment to the success of the HHO venture.
HHSC has also had a very generous donation of £500.00 from one of our members – Iain Williams. Thank you Iain for your generosity!
Well done, our Margaret!!!
Margaret was conferred by the RYA with an Inspirational Instructor Award at the RYA Dinghy & Watersports Show, Farnborough on Saturday, 22nd February.
CONGRATULATIONS Margaret for an award so well deserved. As Bill says: Nobody could be more deserving. Margaret must have helped thousands over the years and inspired them with her passion for sailing.
ANOTHER INITIATIVE! – HHSC invites any beginner, would-be sailors out there for a taster sailing session with our club members at a cost of just £25.00. This is open to all able-bodied souls 18 years old and upwards. No prior experience necessary. For more information contact [email protected]
We have also been running Beginners Courses which have proved very popular. Watch this space for future dates which will depend on timing of the works to rebuild the waterfront at the Centre.
