Report from Vice Commodore
|
|
|
|
Opening Day was not exactly as we'd hoped, with the weather not playing along with our plans. That said, there was a real buzz amongst those who attended the ceremony, with many friendships renewed for the season ahead. Congratulations again to our new Commodore, Cath Hurley on her appointment. As many members are now aware, our hospitality offering is changing. …

A Taste of Things to Come
Last Friday, the Members Bar was buzzing as the new catering team consisting of Marco Di Pietrantonio, Paul Dimattina and Geoff Lindsay introduced themselves to RBYC, sharing their enthusiasm for what’s ahead and settling in for plenty of chats with members.
|
This Friday 9th October,
Steve Reynolds will turn up the heat, hosting a fireside chat with this award-winning trio, serving up stories behind their hospitality careers and reveal what's cooking for RBYC. With new menus, fresh ideas and plenty more on the horizon, there’s lots to look forward to in RBYC’s next chapter! After the great success of the first meat tray raffle, Marco has generously donated another for this week’s door raffle, so come for the stories and stay for the chance to bring home the bacon. With our Members Bar filling up for dinner reservations, be sure to book in early downstairs, you won’t want to miss your first taste of the new RBYC menu!
