Its Windsurfing with a social focus – All are welcome followed by Drinks & BBQ at the Club.  Formats will vary  night depending on conditions and inclination.  Anything from biggest moves and best effort, Le Mans races, Pookhipa expression session.

The annual trophy will be up for ESC members for the most “Meritorious Freesailor” – based on sailor feedback at the Bar afterwards. “Meritorious” is in the sense of “praiseworthy” so the winner on the evening may not always be the most skilful sailor.

Elwood Seahorse Annual Reunion & Dinner Tuesday 8th November

Ahoy there all Elwood sailors, past & present!

ESC Commodore and Elwood Seahorse Oldboys President John Dodd cordially invites all current and former ESC members to the annual Elwood Seahorse Reunion & Dinner at the clubrooms from 6pm on Tuesday 8th November.

Our planned special guest, Australian Olympic sailing team member and former ESC junior champion Krystal Weir, has unfortunately had to cancel but John Dodd assures me that he has another celebrity speaker waiting in the wings, chafing at the bit to entertain you! (Hopefully it wont be his holiday slides again…). He is withholding the identity of the mystery special guest to build suspense and sell some more tickets, but I am told all will soon be revealed!

Please find attached the 2011 Seahorse Newsletter and invitation to the dinner.
