What fantastic results from AKC over a very trying Regatta, very windy conditions making racing tough. Many many thanks to all our fab parents, grandparents and members who helped out volunteering,officiating,feeding, clothing and making sure kids got to races on time !! It was a fantastic vibe under the tents all 5 days !! Huge thanks to all our coaches,especially Angelica who was everywhere she was needed encouraging,exhorting and sometimes commiserating with the whole team. The windy conditions unfortunately finished off our team shade tents, we are looking at getting some branded ones to replace, if any generous business would like to help out an outstanding Central Coast and satellite club pleasure get in touch with Pommie or leave a note in messages😎
