CLUBMANSHIP AWARD
MRS JULIA HORNSBY
T
he Club Person of the Year is elected by a select committee
of one being the Commodore. So it is a very efficient
committee, but one which is taken very seriously.
The Clubmanship Trophy recognises the effort of Members
who have made a significant contribution to the Club across
a range of activities.
This year the Commodore choose a member who has made a significant
contribution across a multitude of areas in a very unassuming but not
unnoticed way including, to name but a few:
• A regular part of the race management team.
• Member of the Archives committee including countless hours with
the white gloves on and slaving over new computer systems.
• A regular supporter of our Regattas including almost a week
of full time work holed up in the Regatta Office completing
Registrations and Administration duties for the Etchells Regatta.
On top of those volunteer efforts, this member also got married
on the front lawn to complete her dedication to the Club and one
particular member.
We are proud to announce that the 2016/17 Club Person of the Year is
Julia Hornsby
