Our Thursday 19 June Camas na h-Eirghe/Lochleven Seafood Café evening muster is fast approaching and we’re hoping to see a good turnout. We now need to know how many people expect to be joining us there so the café can plan for the evening.
We have tables booked for 7:45pm that evening, which should hopefully allow both people coming from work to attend and boats to return to GBC in midsummer daylight/twilight.
It’s on a ‘skiff’ night because we were unable to book a Wednesday ‘sailing’ night, but musters are for all types of boats and we hope to see at least a skiff-load of rowers there.
There should be a mooring available that we can raft up on if necessary.
While we’ve planned a muster for boats and would obviously like to see boats heading across, it’s equally appropriate to go by road if you can’t take a boat and/or the weather’s not suitable. It’s very much a social event either way and something we hope to repeat in future years, so please try to support and make this first one a success if you can.
What we really need to establish now is an idea of likely numbers, so we’re both polling you via social media/email to gauge interest and requesting that you contact Vice Commodore Peter Duggan direct on with numbers of crew/guests if you have definite plans to attend. If you have further questions, please also address these to Peter.
Thank you.
Am planning to go…
Hi again folks, please consider coming even as a Club social event without boats and let me know at ASAP if you are because I simply have to give the café fair notice if uptake remains below our original hopes/expectations. It’s not the boats and ‘muster’ aspect that really matters here when we could all have been arriving by road in inclement weather anyway, but I’m trying to organise events that people wanted and supported when originally discussed (e.g. at AGM) and still think this can be an enjoyable evening for all…
Stop press… re. currently unfilled places for tomorrow night, café’s holding them till 4pm tomorrow so, if you want to go and haven’t already told me, I do need to know. If you’ve told me you’re coming *and* had a reply confirming that, you’re fine, otherwise please get back to me ASAP. Thanks P
