There was a good turn out to the laying up dinner when the trophies were awarded by the President of the club.
The Tobermorry shield was awarded to Dennis and Betty for all the work they have put into the club over a considerable number of years, not only as treasurer but also Dennis with his cooking on the barbecue.

And Ray does it again.
Doing a roll in the road with press-ups was not the only thing he got up to, he also found that he could not get through stampend lock without lowering his mast although he had lowered it to get through the bridges in Lincoln, but he raised it to go through the lock. There was the incident when he gets hooked up in a lock also.
After all that his other half decides she wants to be in on the act and jumps into the lock at Bardney .. But forgot she had her cigarettes with her and was more concerned about them than getting out of the water.
A good effort Ray but I don't think you need to have gone to so much trouble to will this trophy.

Laying Up Supper
On the evening of october 12th. 35 club members together with family and friends had a
very enjoyable time at the Carpenters Arms for our last social event of the boating
season "The Annual Dinner".
Although the dinners took some time to be served up an enjoyable evening was had by all
and the members would like to say thank you to the "torksey Yacht Club" for subsidising
the club members dinners.
We would like to thank our social secretary "Denise" and the "girls" for organising a
very plesant evening.
During the evening two trophies were awarded the Tobermory trophy and the Clumsey trophy.
The Tobermory trophy was awarded to Peter Croft (Sontay) for being the most adventurous
and the longest distance travelled member of the club during the past year having done
several sea trips.

The Clumsy trophy was awarded to Peter Lack (Tamar II) for the most clumsey action of the season.
It was claimed that he went for a swim but the truth is he fell in.
It seems to be such an embarrassment that the boat is up for sale, but this will not hide the
fact that he has won this trophy.

This event was turned into a fun evening due to the problem of

FUN WEEKEND
In aid of the 'Trent Safety Boat', £700.00 raised
Despite the petrol shortage and the weather the 300 year
celebration of the opening of Torksey Lock turned out to be a huge
success. Tony Henshaw opened the weekend with help from
Herbert Cutler who fired the cannon and nearly shot a narrow boat
out of the water. The weather cleared and we had two lovely warm
sunny days in which to enjoy all the fun.
Special thanks to all those who helped in the preperation and to
those who helped on the day to make it a really enjoyable
weekend.
WEST STOCKWITH RALLY
5 Boats were at the West Stockwith rally, the weather was cold but the events there
made up for the bad weather.
TBA RETURN
Boats have arrived back from Nottingham With the trophys, in
quick time due to the fast flow of the river Trent.
MUSKHAM DINNER
The TYC dinner at Muskham Ferry on June 3rd 2000 was a great success.
Seven boats arrivedon the moorings and 21 members enjoyed a lovely meal.
TBA RALLY
The TBA rally 2000 was one to be remembered, the rally was opened on Saturday
morning but with very strong winds and the river flooding the competitions were all
cancelled for the day.
Sunday the weather was a bit better although it was still difficult for the competitors
with all the logs and debris in the water, this made the events that bit more interesting
for those crews taking part.
TYC members did very well though, and carried off a table full of trophys, and despite
the weather everyone agreed it had been a very enjoyable weekend.
PEA &PIE WEDDING CELEBRATION
A good day was had at the Mayday weekend with the pea and pie
supper cum Wedding celebration. Report in the June 2000 news bullitin
