Chat Night/Open Mike

Sailing Confessions and anecdotes from Bramble Bank and beyond…. This week sees us have an “Open Mike” opportunity for members to share stories and experiences of sailing etc in a very informal and easy way. The brains behind this idea - Carl Harker,  has agreed to kick it off, and its aim is to be a great way to share stories for those who may not want to do a full blown laptop presentation. Some of best nuggets of information have come from chance conversations, often from the most unexpected places, so don't be shy and give it a try.

Tides, Lies and Celebrity Scientists

Talk on Tides from our own Chris Jackson. The truth about how the tides are produced, with a detailed look at the English Channel

Quiz Night

Sarah Sibley from RYA Sailability is unfortunately not well and has asked for this talk to be rebooked.  Apologies for the short notice but we will have a quiz night instead.

First Aid Night

This will be a great overview on basic First Aid and hope to have as many attendees as possible.  Not only will it be an informative evening, you could save someone's life with this new knowledge.

Social evening

Chance for everyone to catch up and have a chat, maybe think about some stories for the next Open Mic evening.  

Visitors are welcome on any Thursday club night held at the VBS Community Stadium
