As like last year you can have them three ways:

Front Only: TBYC Embroidered Logo on the front

Front and Back: TBYC Embroidered Logo on the front and TBYC printed on the back

Front and Back Cadet: TBYC Embroidered Logo on the front and TBYC CADET printed on the back

However this year you can personalised them with your name or nickname printed on the back!!!

See images below for examples and prices.

LAST ORDERS 5th JULY!

Session full! If another session is possible we will prioritise those who couldn’t attend this weekend 😊

Saturday 18th June meeting at 13.30 on the beach rigged and changed

Andras and Mark D will be offering an additional small group session for up to 8 cadets who are transitioning to Piranhas for Cadet Week or who Piranhas who have not been on the water this year. If places remain they can be allocated to any cadet who expresses an interest.

If there is lots of interest, 2 short, 1 hour sessions maybe run.

It is essential that you comment on Facebook or email [email protected] to request a place.

Thanks

Nice to see Sandhoppers making it into the press for a mention by Sue Pelling regarding Burnham Week: https://www.sail-world.com/news/250150/?source=rss

On Sunday 12 June 2022 , Havens Hospices will be holding the Southend Half Marathon Event . Full details can be found in the attachment.

Access to the grass  car park will be prohibited from 08.45 – 12.00. If you are in the car park before 08.45am you will not be able to get out until after midday.

Racing on 12 June starts at 09.30am so most of you will have crossed the road by the time it is closed, otherwise please take notice of the stewards and give way to the runners.

On this Sunday 5th June we have the CADET ‘MINI RACE’ SERIES.

This is open to all Cadets who can sail a Trapezoid course (Beat, Reach and Run). There will be up to four short races with support as needed.

The RNLI Pursuit Race has a different start time for each class of boat, starting from 13:30 and finishes two hours later at 15:30 . The idea is the boats should all finish about the same time based on their PN classification.

If you want to enter and your boat class is not listed below please contact me at [email protected] by 10am on Friday to get a start time.

The idea of the race is to support the RNLI and a collection box will be on the club bar for entrants (and anyone) to donate whatever they like.
