The dinghy section at Bardowie is a club, and we pitch in with whatever skills and time we can offer.
Two key roles are the instructors who run the training and the stewards who open the site so people can practice or have fun.
There are lots of other ways anyone can help out even if they do not sail, including:
- Making hot drinks or rolls for the end of training sessions
- Organizing a social event like a BBQ
- Welcoming visitors on shore
- Helping with the diner at events like regattas
- Driving power boats at events
- Getting boats out of storage at the start of the season
- Storing boats again before the Winter
- Learning to be a race officer
- Repairing boats with the Monday morning group (with tea and a chat)
- Joining the committee to help us make the right decisions
- Offering your professional skills (e.g. finance, IT, trades, safeguarding)
We are happy to welcome parents whose children are sailing at Bardowie too!
