We were pretty badly messed up by lousy weather on the 21st, so we’re trying again for the sailing part of the program. We will leave from the Church at 9:30 am to ensure we can make it to the QCYC tender on time. Eat breakfast before you come. We will have lunch on the boats. We will be outside all day – dress for the weather. Please also bring 2 TTC tickets, a water bottle and a bag lunch.
We will return to the church between 2:45 and 3:45pm (exact time depends on wind conditions and the ferry we catch, we’ll post an update here when we know which ferry we’ll catch) or you can meet us on Algonquin Island after 1:30pm or at the ferry docks on the city side at 2:15 or 2:45 if you prefer.
