Xmas Party (Sunday Dec 30th)

- The xmas party is only 4 days away and is planned to be a bumper meet. ??Kernow Garden Care?? (a new sunshine coast sponsor) has come onboard to sponsor the BBQ while the sponsors from throughout the year have sent in heaps of excellent gear for presents. The party is being held in Brisbane this year and regardless of wind will go ahead on the date nominated. To make the most of whatever conditions we get we are watching 2 locations. Either Victoria point if the wind is southerly or Wellington point is the wind is northerly.

I have planned a large event with lots to do for all .

1.The BBQ sponsored by Kernow garden care
2.A mast measuring rig to test our gear
3.Landsailers for everyone to use
4.Beginners gear for learners (wind permitting)
5.The lorch production speed board that did 42knots at sandy point will visit the meet
6.Also Santa has provided big time with kids rig from Starboard for the club??s library.

The presents (giveaways)

7.A Gun Boom and a Loft quiver bag from windsurfing sales
8.The club members packs with a dvd of aussie action and stickers from all the sponsors.
9.Merchandise from Caloundra wind & surf
10.Miniature battery powered windsurfers for the kids

The day will hopefully provide something for everyone. The conditions will see a high tide around 2pm and the current forecast is for 30-35 knots. so the plan is to get the day underway a little earlier with the start planned for 12 noon. Could everyone coming please email me so I can work out catering needs.

Women in Windsurfing meet (Saturday Jan 12th)

- After taking the decision to postpone the women??s day based on weather I set about re-scheduling. So the meet is now penned in for jan 12th.
So once more planned for the day is

1.The BBQ sponsored by Starboard.
2.Starboard womens giveaways. (3 long sleeve wetshirts)
3.Beginners gear and how too??s about windsurfing

Because of the rescheduling the date will not be changed. The event will be at Redcliffe and the venue will be Pelican park if a southerly or Queens beach north if Northerly. Could all those wanting to borrow beginners gear or lesson please email me so I can cater to numbers. Please tell your friends and drag them all along. ??

We have an afternoon high tide on the day.
