Happy New year to all and a reminder of the first social meeting of 2024 at Wivenhoe Sailing Club. This will be preceded by a meeting of the management committee.

The ACBOC Christmas social will be at 8pm on Monday 4th December at WSC.

Please bring party food to share;  savoury or sweet.

We’ve got mince pies covered.

Hope everyone has stayed safe during the current inclement weather. Tasks as detailed in the recent email.

There are several jobs planned, and you are welcome to join whichever activity you like. Just turn up, but do reply to the secretary’s email so we know who is coming for catering purposes.

The main task is to recycle the caravan, which is no longer needed. If you have cutting equipment that you can bring please do so.

We also aim to work on internal storage. This will be greatly helped by those who have tenders in the shed moving them into the dinghy store area next to the kitchen on the working party day. All tenders will be moved from their summer shed position to outside if they have not been moved by their owner on or before the working party day.

Finally we plan to work on the outside area,

We look forward to seeing you there.

For those unable to be at the last meeting when the agenda was published. I have attached a copy here.
