Now that things are slowly moving along we definitely need another meeting, to touch base and continue to drive things forwards.
Suggested points to be covered
Windsurfing Development plan, finalise a document to be given to the Management Committee. Keyword "achievable"
Web content, what would windsurfers want on the website? Will the directors allow the content to be included? Etc

These are drop in sailing sessions run every Monday evening (16:30 - 19:30) from 14th June through to the 20th September. The session price includes use of equipment.
Photos of staff in centre
Not always the prettiest bunch but they are up for all to marvel at
"Happy to Help"Rash vests
to be worn by designated people to identify them for advice. Note to be put on website saying this and notices around the centre (Stop me and buy one!).
