On 4th July 40 yachts from the Danish Ocean Cruising Association are due to arrive at Seaport Marina*.
To mark the occasion British Waterways are planning a welcome event for that evening which will include live music and they have asked the GGCUA to organise a BBQ. This is currently being arranged and we are now looking for volunteers who are able to spare a few hours to help prepare, cook and serve food on the day.
The 2 main time frames are:
- 5pm – 7.30pm for preparing the food e.g. cutting salad items, preparing vegetable kebab, slicing buns etc.
- 7.30pm - 9.30pm for cooking and serving the food.
In addition to the 120 crew from the Danish boats and members of both British Waterways and GGCUA, the Danish consulate and local councillors have been invited. Media coverage is also being planned.
If you would like to volunteer to help out for this event please contact GGCUA either by email (ggcua2003@yahoo.co.uk) or phone Dave Bird (Chairperson) on 07986 282184 for further details.
It’s promising to be a fun evening with a chance to meet and chat with some of our European counterparts.
*Weather permitting, the event may be changed to the 5th July if the weather prevents them from arriving on the 4th.
