- Goose island has been moved and the jetty is clear for launching yachts and boats. The barrier is still across the entrance to the terrace but you can just move it to gain access, but please make sure it gets closed behind you. Don’t forget to fill in the track and trace log if you are at the lake. Use the 2021 tracker section at the back. Richard will bring a new diary on Friday April 16th.

- At the moment the club is not planning any activity other than any socially distanced sailing at Silvermere for a maximum of six people. Although at the moment this is hindered by the presence of the nesting goose. As lockdown releases see here: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/covid-19-response-spring-2021/covid-19-response-spring-2021-summary and the restrictions are hopefully lifted we will plan more events and activity including club nights and an AGM. We look forward to a fuller programme from the middle half of the year.
Club activity during partial lockdown and easing if restrictions through to 21st June.

- During lockdown a floating pontoon/island with a nesting Canada goose on it has appeared in front of the jetty. Nobody, so far has any idea where it came from? Silvermere management have been made aware of the problem but so far no comment. We will keep you informed. At the moment we cannot use the jetty due to the proximity of the nest.

- Happy Anniversary everybody, our club is celebrating their 25th year. We plan to celebrate our 25 years as a club sometime in the summer, subject to any Covid-19 restrictions. We would like your suggestions for a suitable event that we can hold probably outside. We might be able to book the island terrace for a day so we can have a buffet and a sail. If you have any other thoughts then please let us know via the contact information page.
