OCSG EVENTS CALENDAR

We continue to go for events with emphasis on cruising and less on racing (which has only ever been a very small element of our weekend events, anyway).

The successful camping-from-the-boats September weekends (we sailed the length of Windermere and back in 06 and did much the same on Ullswater in 07) will be repeated but back on Windermere for 08.
