  • First of all a Happy New Year to all club members. Club Calendar has been updated  for 2009 but at time of writing there are few events dates to be confirmed as yet by the AMPBA.  will update as they come to hand. I am still under the impression that the launch area is to be replaced this month but as of  last wednesday nothing had been done.

 

  • So heres to a year of good racing and club days, weather  permitting,  please check all 2008  baggage at the gates 2009 is here and its time to focus on  building and running model boats and enjoying your hobby.

     

13th December, 2008

  • For those that didn't get the group email, the BBQ and presentation is cancelled till further notice. Weather  forecast is for rain/showers for Sunday with 45 kph winds and a top of 17. If any of you hardcore guy's head out to the lake..good luck.

  • Looks like the weather isn't going to be on our side for the Club Day BBQ. Keep checking back here and will post if BBQ is going ahead by Saturday night. Forecast is for 45kph winds and heavy showers on Sunday. Also I will send out a group e-mail, if you haven't registered on the web site  please do so or you will not receive the e-mail. Please use your name when you register so I know that you are a club member and not a spammer.

The BBQ will be on and we will have the Club Champs trophy presentation after.
