Clipper Information Session Saturday 12.00
The organisers of the Clipper Race have asked LSYC to host an information session about the Clipper Race on Saturday next, 16th July. The session will take place at 12.00 on Saturday at the Clubhouse in Fahan.
Lough Swilly Yacht Club has a long association with the Race, with several of our members and ex members involved in key positions. We look forward to hearing about the race to date and plans for recruitment of volunteers to future races. It should be an interesting event.
Everybody is welcome, members and non-members.
I hope we can manage a good turnout – you never know who might show up!
Clipper Punt Race
Next Friday the clipper crew are coming to Lough Foyle yacht club to take part in a Foyle punt race, starting at 19.00. It should be a good night. Maybe see you there?

Women on the Water
Just a reminder that the annual Women on the Water Race will take place next Sunday, 17th July at 16.00. I would like to encourage as many as possible to take part.
There will be a prize for the winning boat helmed by a woman and of course a prize for an al woman crew.
It would be helpful if you could let me know if you’re intending to take part (or even let me know if you can’t make it) – email me at loughswillysailing.
Round th eIsland Race deferred until tomorrow (Sunday 3rd July)
I’m at Fahan at the moment and it’s looking pretty wild and the forecast is no better.
In the circumstances, the Round the Island Race will be deferred until tomorrow, start time 4.00pm. I look forward to seeing you all there.
