Upcoming Events

Sunday 1st September 2024

After the very successful and popular social last summer, I am delighted that Claire has again kindly offered to host a social event at Llangorse Sailing Club on Sunday 1st September .

Please let Jane C. know if you will be joining us by 6.00pm on Saturday 24th August

As last year –
There will be a chance to sail in a Flying Fifteen or a Comet Trio.
Please bring your own food for the BBQ.

  • Arrive any time after 11.00 but by 14.00….we’ll probably pack up about 16.00 – followed by BBQ, depending on the weather.
  • Bring packed lunch and BBQ food plus alcohol for those who wish.
  • We have tea, coffee, cans, crisps, cup a soups, pot noodles and chocolate bars etc for sale but not ‘real’ food.
  • Waterproofs and boots are fine for Flying Fifteen sailing but anyone wanting to try a dinghy should bring a wetsuit (or warm lightweight clothes) and shoes that can get wet, plus a change of clothes and a towel.
  • We can lend buoyancy aids.

If anyone wants to bring partners/ family it’s a lovely place to spend the day enjoying the wildlife on the lake…there’s a nice walk around to Llangasty church….stout shoes. Also there’s a cafe on the common for ice cream etc.

Let’s hope for good weather and some breeze.

Thursday 16th April, 6pm

The next social will be at the Left Bank (Bridge Street, Hereford, HR4 9DG) on Thursday 13th April.

There are several thoughts re best format for a social, and so this one will be slightly different to previous events – we will meet for drinks so that we can mingle easily.

We have space reserved in the Garden Room at the Left Bank (where we held our meeting and “after drinks” on 7th March) from 6.00pm. The bar can provide food for any that wish to eat.

Looking forward to seeing you there.
