Some Event feedback 2024:
‘Well done to everyone involved in organising this event. It was by far my best day yet for the summer holidays. It is in a beautiful setting. I have lived in Thorpe for years and didn't know you were there. We had the best day the children I brought were nervous about trying the activities especially my son but he loved the paddle boarding. The instructors were so knowledgeable and friendly and reassuring supportive of the young lady I had with me who was special needs. It was all very inclusive. We would love to try some courses or find out more information - family days. Thankyou I have recommended you to my friends too!’
‘It was an excellent open day. All of the staff and volunteers were so friendly and enthusiastic, a real credit to the yacht club!’
‘All the instructors were extremely kind and professional in there teaching, many thanks’
