General Meeting of the OGA of WA

Upcoming OGA of WA General Meeting 24th May at RFBYC

Attention all OGA members and interested parties:

If you have not renewed your membership please do so as soon as you can as our upcoming General Meeting has so much to offer. It will start at 7.30pm on Wednesday 24th May at RFBYC.

Dave Cliff will be presenting news and photos from the recent Australian Wooden Boat Festival in Hobart. A number of our members attended and a few of our boats even made an appearance. Come and see what makes this event the biggest Wooden Boat Festival in the Southern Hemisphere. It is a photographers dream and the quality and range of boats has to be seen to be believed.

Also at this General Meeting we will be discussing a number of social sailing events, including an upriver Swan River picnic/winery cruise, a Swan River Raft-up, as well as a sail along the Murray River that is planned for June. So come along to find out about these great opportunities to shake the barnacles off the boat over the winter period.

Those of you that sailed in the Swan River Retro Series should note the upcoming dinner and prize presentation to be held at RPYC on Saturday the 27th May. You can book directly:

Please RSVP to Tracey at Reception, RPYC on (08)9389 1555 or reception@rpyc.com.au
