Please note, the working party for Sunday 15th February has been cancelled. This is due to the great progress made at todays endeavor. Many thanks to the people who made the effort to turn up and help bring some TLC to the committee boat. The next scheduled working party is 28th of February, so the more reluctant club members still have a chance to make a positive contribution to TBYC.

Apologies but the scheduled Valentines Night Dinner has been cancelled due to Gas works/upgrade that will be taking place at the Club on 12/13 Feb. Should the work run behind schedule then the Kitchen will be unable to prepare a 3 course meal on Saturday 14th and this is a risk that we cannot afford to take. The next theme night will be a dinner on Friday 6th March and I will update you when the menu has been finalised.
Regards
Theresa
