Talk: "Fire Safety Aboard" by Colin McLean and others

Talk: "Fire Safety Aboard" by Colin McLean, Friday 8th May

This is a "save the date" notice - more details will be added later.

Colin McLean, as most of you  know, is Assistant Manager at Haslar Marina and he has kindly offered to address the subject of Fire Safety on board vessels with, hopefully, contributions from other Club members.

We held a very similar event in November last year and all who attended agreed that it was a very important talk and many others, who could not attend, asked for it be repeated nearer to the start of the sailing season.

The talk will take place in The Fabrosa Room at The Hornet Services Sailing Club. If you intend to have dinner at The Hornet beforehand it would help the galley staff if you would pre-order your meal in advance. The bar menu can be found on the Hornet Clubhouse website here (just scroll to the bottom of the page & look for Downloads) and you should email your choice to events@haslaryachtclub.co.uk by 12:00 on Sunday 3rd May please. Payment will be at the bar on the night by credit card only. Please note that cancellation can only take place up to 12:00 on Tuesday 5th May.

To gain entry to The Hornet site you must book a ticket for each person who wishes to attend so that all the names are on the list sent to their office. You will need to show the Security guards some photo ID of either your driving licence or your passport.

The itinerary for the evening is:

         18:00                     Bar open at The Hornet for drinks and meals at members own cost

         19:30 - 20:15         Talk on Fire Safety in the Fabrosa room

         20:15                     Q&As

         18:00 - 23:00          Bar open throughout the evening
