The Committee of Management is truly saddened by the sudden passing of our one of our former Commodores, Club Champion and respected Life Member, Russell Bates.

Members may attend the Club on New Year’s Eve and quietly enjoy the evening together with the normal limit on friends and family. There will be no WSC organised event at the Club for New Year’s Eve this year and the bar will not be operating.
Further to our recent Update on the Roof replacement works, we are pleased to advise that the roof works have been completed with the Solar back in place. The Scaffold will be dismantled tomorrow, Saturday 1st October, so ask all that attending the last Working Bee before Open day, be mindful of this activity and stay clear of the works.
We are pleased to report that the majority of the roof replacement works have been completed, despite the seasons weather and public holidays. The scaffold is still in place to finish of the capping, which should not be too far away.
Following the recent inspection and minor works on our asbestos roof, Parks Victoria have decided at their cost to replace all our asbestos roofs. This will need the Club to be completely closed between 5pm on 12th September (next Monday) through to 5pm on Monday 26th September (2 weeks).
Save the Date - Sailing Season Opening Day on Saturday 8th October. More information on the days activities coming soon.
We look forward to seeing you there.
