Wednesday Business Lunches

We now offer a special weekly lunch aimed specifically at the business community. Attractively priced at just £10, a tasty hot and cold buffet will be available; Club members are invited to bring non members as their guests.

We do hope that you will be able to support this new initiative and perhaps bring along two (or three!) colleagues for lunch on a Wednesday

Friday September 17th - 19:30

WINE OF THE MONTH

The wines of the month for September are Pinot Grigio Terre di Montelusa from ITALY.
With determination to hang on to the Summer this has got to be an ideal wine. Dry, crisp and delicately aromatic. A Pinot Grigio that delivers classic Italian elegance.
We are also offering Montepulciano d’Abruzzo Minini, a fruity Italian red showing a deep ruby red hue with a juicy bouquet. Full of dark red fruits including blackberries, cherries and finishing with gentle spice.

Both are £13.50 per bottle or sold by the glass.
GILL AKASTER 1884 SERIES

Please note from 1st September racing will start 30 minutes early.

An amendment to the Sailing Instructions has been issued to allow multiple lap courses. See pages 16 and 17 of the Race Programme.
