Ilfracombe Regatta 21st August
Camping and storing of Gigs on Friday and Saturday night
We have moved the camping to Ilfracombe Rugby Club - the address is Chambercombe Park Road, Ilfracombe EX34 9QN to find, Head into Ilfracombe then take road to Hele Bay, the Rugby Club is next door to the leisure centre. If it is wet then cars and trailer will have to be parked in the Leisure centre but camping will be fine on the rugby pitch. The reason for changing is they have hot showers. Any problems phone 01271 865972 or 07523588705 and Lynda or Bob Corwin will be able to help.
Friday night
There is a leaving party for Andy Putt the lifeboat cox in the Yacht Club so we will be in the Prince of Wales in Fore Street if you would like to join us for a drink. The Prince of Wales is behind the Lifeboat station.
