well done to the 147 cadets and their respective parents for a tremendously well supported and appreciated Cadet Week 2010.
TBYC at its very best.
The enthusiasm is truly infectious with the behaviour and politeness of our Cadets being first class.
Special Thanks to the Group Leaders, Racing Sharks Ian Little & Rupert Snow, Barracudas Mike Thomason, Stingrays Mark Petty-Mayor, these guys with their respective helpers take on a huge responsibility and are tasked to ensure an enjoyable week on the water and as usual surpassed expectation.
Beverly Warrington once again stepped into the breach as director of operations with all the deserved plaudits.
There are many parents who helped all the above achieve the weeks full programme of events from refuelling in the Bosuns Hut to Road Crossing Patrols which are vital to the safety of our Cadets as young as 4 years.
Final thank you to all those without Cadets doing the week who still took a weeks holiday out from work or retirement to help and all the effort really ensures a good future for both our Club and Sport of Sailing.
many thanks to you all,
Peter

The ladies showers are almost finished, we have doubled the size of the changing room, installed 5 new powerful showers which are running off the supply from the cascading boiler system, within the next few weeks we will have cubicles in the showers for additional privacy, the toilets have been painted, new chrome paper holders, soap dispensers etc are in and we will be adding new hairdryers.
All the work has been carried out with minimal disruption with the help of a few members and some professional trades. Many thanks to Sam Husk, Alex Hadley, Isabel Duce, Peter Thompson, Nick Elmore, Toby Speller, Paul Spratt and Ian Bradley for giving up there time to help.
Thanks also to the various trades for their work…MHS Radiators and boilers, Mike whistler building work and John Woods Taylor plumbers.
I hope you enjoy the improvements and that the increased capacity creates an even better atmosphere for the increasing number of female sailors that TBYC is lucky to have.
