The Maxi Association Rally

This rally is being hosted by Richard and Lorraine Sams and is the final opportunity this season to compare notes and swap stories of the seasons escapades.

The Folly Pontoon has been reserved for an early afternoon arrival.

The evening will start with pre dinner drinks and nibbles on the pontoon

There will be the opportunity to indulge in the local culture of “table dancing” later in the evening for those brave enough.

To retain the use of the walk ashore pontoon we need to confirm numbers of boats and diners as soon as possible so your response by 01 October is appreciated to allow final preparations to be made.
