Try sailing and windsurfing for FREE at Draycote Water SC on Saturday 2 July (11am - 4pm) & be part of a huge summer of sailing in Britain
Mums and dads, are you looking for a new way to get your kids outdoors and active and find something you can enjoy together as a family? Kids, reckon it would be cool to get to splash about with your friends and have a go in a boat? Teachers, are there pupils at your school you think could get a lot from getting active in a different way to the more traditional school sports and team games?If your answer is ‘Yes!' get down to Draycote Water Sailing Club, near Rugby, on Saturday 2 July (11am - 4pm) where anyone and everyone (aged six years upwards) can try sailing and windsurfing for FREE and be part of what is set to be a huge summer of sailing in Britain.
From the history-making British Sailing Team sailors racing for gold on the Rio 2016 Olympic and Paralympic waters, to the Louis Vuitton America’s Cup World Series arriving in Portsmouth in July and the adventure of the Swallows and Amazons film remake, starring Rafe Spall and Harry Enfield, due for release in August, inspiration to get active afloat will be everywhere this summer including in Warwickshire!
In May more than 2,500 people across the Midlands took advantage of the chance to try sailing for free as part of the national Push The Boat Out have-a-go festival of sailing organised by the sport’s national governing body, the RYA, with over 150 of these having a go at Draycote Water SC’s own event.
Now building on that success, you have another chance to sail into summer right on your doorstep…
Draycote Water SC, situated on the A426, just south of Dunchurch in Draycote Water Country Park, is a recognised RYA Training Centre meaning it conforms to the highest standards of quality and safety. All equipment, including wetsuits if required, will be supplied and refreshments available.
Just wear soft soled shoes, dress for the weather and bring along your sense of fun and adventure!
