Sunset Sail Cancelled

29 07 2008

Due to a complete lack of interest in the club’s activities by the members, I’m going to go ahead and cancel the sunset sail scheduled for this weekend.  Next semester’s sailing club will be quite different, and will cater to what we’ve learned to expect this semester from members.  There will only be a couple of formal events and we’re going to continue to try and get Dr. Goff to teach sailing on some weekends.





Purple Turtle Trip

15 07 2008

Ahoy Sailors!

Our next event will be this Saturday, July 19th, at 10 am.  It will be a sail to Purple Turtle for lunch and maybe some beach time there if you guys are up for it.  Purple Turtle has a lovely beach (especially for Dominica) with plenty of palm trees to rest beneath.  Bring money for lunch if you want lunch there (they have tasty burgers).  This is our second to last planned event for the semester so if you’re looking to get more sailing experience, this is one of your last chances to do it.  You are, as always, welcome to bring friends along.  We’re going to only charge $10EC per guest for this particular event as a special deal.

PLEASE RSVP if you are sure you are attending this event.  I will send out an email early Saturday morning if the weather looks unfavorable, so don’t forget to check your email before you leave.  Email me or call me if you have any questions (285-0404).  See you there!
