Please can everyone call Mountbatten before setting off tomorrow please or keep an eye on our social media :)
Due to the cost of living increases, Drake Sailing Club regrets to inform you that we have had to increase prices this year, something that we have not done for many years.
Therefore the new prices will go as follows:
A membership will now be £40 per year
And the payment per week will be £6 per session
For new members, we will still provide a free taster session
There is also an option to buy an organisational membership for £40 which will cover any individuals within that organisation per membership plus the weekly payment.
If you have any questions or queries, please don’t hesitate to ask!
D.S. :)
“A couple of memories of this evenings training session.”
The dates have been provisionally set for this year. We are looking forward to seeing all helms and volunteers on the 3rd and 10th and members on the 17th :)
