Happy birthday to Bridget on her 50th…
Nice One Ethan!
Ethan Dawson competed in a NW Topper open last weekend at Leigh & Lowton and finished a very respectable 8th out of 29.
Five of those that finished ahead of him were in National squads.
Can You Help?
The National Youth Regatta 2013 is being held at Bassenthwaite from 22-26 July this year.
With 200+ boats, approx 300 junior sailors, plus support staff etc there is a massive amount of co-ordination required to aid smooth running of the regatta.
If you are able to offer some of your time during that week it would be greatly appreciated.
The following are key roles which need to be filled
– catering officer at the sailing club to coordinate the provision of breakfast, lunch and dinner for key helpers (approx 60 people). The meals would be bought in but need to be set up, heated as necessary, and issued to the relevant people. NB coordinate doesn’t mean doing all the work but ensuring there is an adequate rota to get the tasks done!
– sponsorship officer. This is clearly a key role to support the funding of the week, and anyone with a silver tongue would be greatly appreciated.
If you can help but want more information do not hesitate to contact us at [email protected]

Winter Walk
Clearly many of you had an abstemious New Year not needing to work off over indulgences as there was a select few of about 20 members that opted to take the high route over the renowned Sale Fell, or the low route through to Wythop Mill and Embleton, for the first walk of the year. Afterwards everyone gathered in the clubhouse to devour their sandwiches and a warming cup of tea.
If you are feeling that you missed out, don’t forget that the next walk will be Sunday 10 February when it is likely that there will be a more challenging walk starting early (possibly 9am) venturing up Skiddaw (or somewhere similar), with a less challenging, more family friendly, walk from about 11am with the aim of meeting back at the clubhouse in time for lunch. Keep an eye on the website for further details.
Happy 2013!
With very best wishes for a successful and prosperous year from Bassenthwaite Sailing Club
Merry Christmas!
Hoping you all have a great Christmas.

Children’s Christmas Party
Santa is o
n his way.
After some face painting, and numerous games to try and zap their energy (or perhaps Emma’s!), the kids enjoyed some nibbles. Then Henry announced that he had spotted Santa coming in on the water who had landed in Dubwath bay and hitched a lift from a rescue boat.
Santa then popped into the club, encouraged the merry throng to sing some Christmas songs, before handing out some selection boxes, and rushing off to his next appointment.
