POINT & PENPOLL

                 THE ROWING & SUP EVENTS
               PLANNED FOR SUNDAY 30th JUNE
                       HAVE BEEN
                       CANCELLED

   The allocation of dates for the village regattas is decided by the ‘Village
 Committee’ of the Port of Falmouth Sailing Association (PoFSA). For this year
          we were bottom of the list and thus drew the short straw,
                being allocated a weekend with a very low tide.

Following consultation with a number of Pilot Gig clubs, and consideration of the
  access to the pontoon from the quay and the narrow slipway at such a low tide,
the Committee has therefore decided to cancel, for this year only, the Rowing and
            SUP events planned for Sunday 30th June on safety grounds.

 We now have agreement through the Port of Falmouth Sailing Association to a
   change of the criteria for the allocation of dates and this situation should not
therefore arise again. We thus apologise for this year’s shortened programme but
  hope that you will support us on the 6th and 7th of June next year when, with a
     good tide, we will reinstate the traditional gig, rowing, and SUP events.
