HRCST LAUNCH AT TREVASSACK

Ant and I attended the launch of the HRCST facilities at Travassack Lake last month.  It was a great turnout on an overcast day.  We were really impressed with the lake. Although an old quarry, it feels much more like a sheltered lake with a pretty island in the middle and wooded banks all around.  The Trust also had on show the plans for the accommodation units and the teaching facilities which were really much more impressive and ambitious than we had imagined.  We now totally understand why this facility offers things that simply cannot be provided for on The Helford.  More details can be found on their website and we would encourage you all to go online and have a look – hrcst.org.uk

    If you see Mike Maguire floating around in the water, just leave him. He’s swimming. For the first time in many years.  It was lovely to see Brian Roper and family heading out onto The Helford a little while ago – well done Brian.

    Along with the approach to winter, we will be having a clear out of the engine store in November.  Can you make sure that everything you have in there is named?  Anything un-named will be photographed and shown in the next newsletter and, if unclaimed, will be disposed of.
