Scouts - Gig Adventure
Time for the Gig Adventure again, but this
time we did not have enough scouts to put a crew together. This didn't
dampen the enthusiasm for the event and we still attended as spectators.
We arrived at LDYC just before 20:00 on
Friday and setup camp. After a relaxed supper, we piled into the car and
headed off to the senior start to watch the race start. Four senior
crews had entered, 1 from Benoni and 3 from Eastleigh. It was pretty
chilly and we headed back to camp straight after the midnight start.
Saturday we intended to do some
sailing and the weather was sunny and calm. Too calm and we really didn't
achieve much. The first junior crew was in on Saturday morning and all the
senior crews were in before night fall.
Sunday was another calm day,
so again no joy with sailing. So after a rather uneventful camp and we
headed home.
