Sea Swim and BBQ, Sunday 25th February



Hi all
This Sunday we're having our annual Sea Swim and BBQ.
Eastern Beach, northern end
4:45 pm Briefing for the swim
5:00 pm Swim
6:00 pm Eating!
If you're swimming, please be ready in time for the briefing, as we're pushing the limit for the tide.

All the family is welcome. The club will provide sausages, bread & condiments, and we ask that you bring a plate of something to go with it (sweet or savoury).
There's good parking in Rogers Park (first left after the roundabout as you approach Eastern Beach).

We've ordered nice weather, so there'll be no need to postpone again. However, if the wind is unfavourable we'll move to our back-up location (Little Bucklands Beach southern end). Watch your emails on Sunday morning.

I look forward to seeing you there.

Best regards

BBQ & Sea Swim Postponted

Hi all

It's clear that the weather will not let us enjoy a BBQ tomorrow, so the committee has decided to postpone it.

Our back-up date is in two weeks, on Sunday 25th February.

Let's hope we have better luck next time.

Best regards
