Chew Valley Sailing Club

Contributed by Ralph

Saturday, 06 September 2008 What a great Wedneday Evening series. 57 qualifiers (completed 10 out of the 18 races) with no abandoned races. Indeed there were very few races where the wind died either. Congratulations to Tom Offer and Rob Higgins (winners of the A Handicap in an RS 800), Neil Hopton (winner in the Laser Fleet) and Alan Coventry(winner of the B Handicap). If you have any queries about these results or the Summer Points and Admirals Chase (last 2 correct on web site but not on club notice board) then contact Ralph. Last Chance To Enter RYA Zone Championships In September Chew will be celebrating its 41^st Anniversary with the usual Pursuit Race preceded by the Age Trophies where we all own up to another year !! At the end of September Chew will be hosting the Volvo RYA South West Zone Championship . . More details to follow but all entries are via the RYA Website . Please be aware that the “algae” has returned to Chew. This could cause skin irritation and contact with skin and eyes should be avoided if possible. Wash after any contact as soon as possible. Don't drink the water or let animals drink or enter the water. For all those keen Golfers George Simpkins is arranging what I suspect is he first CVLSC Golf Day on Wednesday the 10^th of September. If you would like more details contact George directly via the contacts page. Should be a great day.

Laser & Solo Open 2008

Written by singleton

Saturday, 28 June 2008 Sounds like a great days sailing. Thanks to all those who helped out including Ian and his race team and Frank Jones on Results and the rescue team clearly were clearly the stars of the day!! SOLO OPEN 2008 A number of factors, the event was sandwiched between the Inland nationals and the Dutch Nationals, combined with a forecast for gale force winds, reduced the number of participants to just nine boats. A number of very competitive stalwarts of the series arrived along with three from CVLSC.
