Topic : Fixtures so far

Hi All,
 
I have published the Silver Tiller dates that are confirmed for 2015 so far. These dates are confirmed, but the one/both days for ST points are not yet final. I'll do this once we know where we stand for everywhere. I don't anticipate many changes though.
 
I'm still waiting to hear from a number of clubs including Blackpool & Fleetwood, Parkstone, Pwllheli and Bolton. Hopefully we will get all three more northern venues, i'm doing my best! This may be achieved by clashing with an event unlikely to attract the same target audience.
 
Once again Hamble and Chichester have chosen the same weekend so we have a double header there and the event at Parkstone is intended to be a double header too. Hayling will be two days at sea by popular request. Lyme Regis is back in again by popular request, and we have a new event at Aldeburgh on the east coast. 
 
With a bit of luck it will be possible to qualify for the ST next year without doing more than one journey over 100 miles from most areas of the country. It goes without saying that to keep these events they need support - we have lost a number of events due to low turnouts, some have been out on a limb or have suffered with a poor date choice but a single figure turnout doesn't encourage a club to have us back! Please try to support your local events as much as possible.
 
Happy sailing!

Yes good to have some dates early on. Much better know what we know rather than wait until it's 100%. Looks like Ranelagh need to be added to the "waiting to hear list " :-)

Ranelagh don't have an ST next year, but are hosting the Dinner on a date to be agreed.
 
There is a rotation on the Thames as there are 5 clubs vying for two spots and it's not Ranelagh's turn in 2015.

First error found and hopefully the only one!  The date for Weymouth was incorrect, now altered.
