“Volunteers are not paid – not because
they are worthless, but because they
are priceless.”

Volunteers contribute across many roles to assist the Sailing Office in conducting the Squadron’s sailing program. In addition, we rely on volunteers to run our Finn’s Shed workshop, social events, committees and special interest clubs. Our Officer of the Day program is dependent on volunteers to provide a warm welcome to all visitors at Reception – a club highlight of which we are very proud. We have been fortunate to have our strong Volunteer group continue to throw its support behind the Squadron and ensuring that our on and off-water activities are conducted safely and enjoyed by everyone. The emphasis on volunteering at the Squadron is ‘having fun’ and this is also the theme of our training sessions, which have been embraced and enjoyed by many new and experienced Volunteers. The lead-up to any of our sailing events involves team training, including on-shore and onwater roles, so there is something for everyone.
