Fun Day - August Bank Holiday Monday

Fun Day was most definitly Fun and the TBC was packed.
It was great to see so many people, many of them visitors but also lots of members, both old and new, turn out to support the club.
The car park was full, the stalls laden with goodies and the cake stall soon denuded of more cakes than the average cake shop could display. The kitchen did a roaring trade as did the RNLI and lots of children left with faces painted to portray any number of familiar and some weird creatures, some people even won coconuts.
The Sandcastle competition was a success, even if the judge might have been a bit tired having only arrived in Cardigan in the early hours. The Beach races were run, or walked, or in the case of the sack race hopped.
We all made the best of our 'non summer' weather and everyone went home happy.

Celtic Longboats round Cardigan Island

The Rowing section of the TBC were blessed with fine weather and even sunshine for their 'Invitation Row Round The Island' on Sunday 24th - Bank Holiday weekend
Six boats in all with visitors from Tenby, Newport and elsewhere joined the two TBC based longboats on a lovely sunny afternoon for 'social row' accompanied by the club rib as pathfinder and safety cover.
One of the local boats suffered from rudder problems and had to return early but all the other boats had an enjoyable trip out into the bay and a safe return.
The remainer of the afternoon was spent supporting the bar and sampling the delights of the club's new BBQ.
The event was intended as a dry run for a possible Longboat League race to be hosted next year.
We all look forward to further events as it is nice to be able to welcome visitors to the TBC
