Wednesday Nights! Sign-up for Barge Duty now...
Posted May 7th, 2008 by GreggIt's time! Well, almost...
The sign-up schedule for barge duty is now available. Go to the 'Racing page', take a look, choose a date, and then email fleet.captain@glenmoresailingclub dot com with your relevant information.
First come, first serve. Remember that if you pick an early date this year, you may be lucky enough to get some extra help from some members injured and out of action.
Make your life really easy by downloading the SailWave software onto your laptop and bring it along on your evening. It's not neccessary but it makes the task even easier!

Wednesday Night Racing
Posted May 5th, 2008 by kate.eastonThank you to all of the volunteers who worked hard on Saturday to prepare the club for the season. As the reservoir was still under ice, the barge and marks were not launched. The first official Wednesday night race will be delayed to Wednesday, May 14th. Boats are already gathering on the shore. I hope to see everyone out!

Bring your instrument and play along, or simply relax and enjoy some excellent music.
Spring Clean Up
Posted April 20th, 2008 by kate.eastonSaturday, May 3rd it's all hands on deck to ready the club for another fantastic summer. Staff Captain Stefan "Steel Foot" Dalberg's orders are to report for duty at 10am to be tattooed and assigned your duties. This is a great way to get to know your fellow pirates as you will be working together to swab decks, launch marks, step masts,and get the club off to a good start for the season.
