Welcome to edition 47 of the Bulletin, the regular communication keeping you informed of things happening at HBSC.

Duty Slots for the season ahead

Looking ahead, we have great events with Easter first up. We are looking for more volunteers over the next few weekends, if you can help and want to join the fun on the water.

Just a reminder, if you cannot do volunteering this year it is your responsibility to contact me are the commodore and talk to us about this." With thanks, Peter Falcini.

WhatsApp groups

There are a number of WhatsApp groups that members can join. They are not a formal means of communication but nonetheless, very useful to share interests and chit-chat.

Sailing related chat: https://chat.whatsapp.com/GxkS5XCSChm75tiun3969K

Female Participation: This aim of this group is for female members to mutually support each other and to encourage participation in club on the water activities and volunteering/duties. https://chat.whatsapp.com/Ki783uVEAJPBz7AzELtgWH. This is a very new group and we hope that the people who would like to participate will shape and evolve the group as required.
