VOLUNTEERS
We are happy to say that our training activities are becoming busier and busier, our beginner team ‘Snails’ is growing, including new beginners and young sailors with some experience already.
The Laser Team is taking back our cadet team and it is so good having them here training on regular basis on Lasers dinghies, they are getting better and better every week.
We will have camps for our young sailors and other activities, some new such as Paddle Boarding and we are back to run our shore based courses on regular basis.
We have a busy summer sailing ahead of us and we are looking for volunteers helping us to teach, assist and safety cover during our training sessions.
It could be great having volunteers helping us during our Saturday and Sunday sessions, improving the quality of the sessions on the water!
