Raft Painting and Maintenance day, 7th June 2008.

The maintenance team ventured out on an overcast Saturday, armed with paint, rollers, brushes, scrapers and thinners. We fixed 4 broken floorboards, scrapped off the loose paint, cleaned down with thinners and applied one coat of paint to the inside and two on the outside of the raft. Thanks to Helen, Graham, Jane, Spencer, Ed, Paula, Steve, Chris and Allison who made the effort to come out and make the raft a nicer place for all of us this year.

Photos from the day are now in the Gallery.

Club Kids Day for under 18's, 28th June 2008.

The club is running a Kids Training Day on 28th June. The day is aimed at offering training to both child club members and their guests and other children who are harbour users. BWS qualified club instructors and SBDA drivers have volunteered their time to teach children to ski, Wakeboard or knee board. There should also be two boats with training booms.
In previous years participants have enjoyed themselves immensely.  If you would like to volunteer some time to support the day please contact Helen Baldry on 02392 343512.
We need:
Wake board instructors and Ski Instructors
SBDA boat drivers
Boats with training booms.
Club members with boats to ferry people from the shore to the raft
Burger cookers
Raft assistants to take cash, register participants & distribute equipment
You don’t have to give up your whole day but it would really help if you could commit to a couple of hours.

The weather last year prevented us running the Kids Training day last year but photos from the Kids Day in 2006 are in the Gallery.
