Dear Sailors and Friends,
For your Diary
Alfred Rowing Club Talk Evening and supper set for Friday 13th February
Liz Day, a Club member, is set to give us a fascinating talk on the Vlei – origins, history, water quality, algal blooms, the effects of a stray Zeekoe on the nerves of rowers, etc – on Friday, 13 February.
At a cost of R50 per person I reckon that is fantastic value! I hope we will be able to meet some of our sailing colleagues to boot – as it applies to them as much as us! Rochelle is providing dinner for another R50 per person, and the bar will be open from 5.30pm. A good night is guaranteed!
