Last chance to practice for the Dragon Boat race - Sunday June
29th
Although not everybody was able to wake up after the very successful
Spring Dinner, again we managed to practice with a full boat! Hopefully
Sunday we will achieve the same, since this will be our last opportunity
to work on our performance before the big day. See you Sunday at
10:20 in Nim Shu Wan, to sign up, please contact Marianne Kolding.
Dragon Series 7,8,9 - Sunday May 29th
It has been a while since we had our last race, the more reason
to show up Sunday for the last part of the Dragon Series. To allow
the Dragon Boat racers a quick lunch, we will leave the beach at
13:00 o’clock.
Race Training – Saturday June 4th
For all who participated in one of the Dragon series, special race
training will be organized by our Commodore Training (Jimmy) on
Saturday June 4th. More details will follow in the next flash.
HKSF National Judges Scheme
The National Judges Scheme has operated for the last few years,
but candidates’ progress has been difficult, because of the
need to attend a sufficient number of protest hearings each year
to obtain the necessary experience. There are not many events in
Hong Kong which provide the right opportunity for such experience.
HKSF has therefore decided to revise the scheme, to support a very
limited number of candidates each year (probably no more than 2)
who, if they attend the protest hearings of the major events, will
have obtained the necessary experience.
In order to provide opportunities for local talent to obtain the
National Judge qualification HKSF invites people who are interested
to forward details of their experience and reasons for wishing to
become a National Judge to the HKSF Office at Room 1009, Sports
House, 1 Stadium Path, So Kon Po, Causeway Bay on or before 30 June
2005 for consideration.
Correction/clarification Flash
The offer of new Hobie 16s for HK$55,000 advertised in my previous
email was made by Hong Kong Hobie Cat Ltd, and not the Hong Kong
Hobie Club. Apologies to all concerned for any confusion caused.
