The annual club barbecue took place on Saturday June 24^th at the Surlingham Ferryhouse. Members were able to experience the club’s new marquee for the first time. This served members very well, as 24 of them were able to sit round a single table to eat what can only be described as a superb meal. As usual Sonia’s meal portions were large and the meat was cooked to perfection by Andy Bale.

Kelvin Halifax organised the evening’s entertainment; which was a mother and son duo, Lisa and Leon. They quickly assessed their audience and played numbers which went down well with all present. Many members (and other people off boats) were on their feet dancing, even after a big meal!

Although numbers were down on recent years, everyone enjoyed themselves and the whole occasion was a success.
