Dedicate in Memory or as a Living Legacy
We are due to move into our new Clubhouse in the next few months.
There are a number of opportunities within the new building which may give Members the opportunity to pay tribute to loved ones who are no longer with us, or to leave a living legacy representing you/your family’s time a Sussex Yacht Club and contribute in a truly meaningful way to the building which we hope will be our home into the next century.

On the plus side, the sacrifices we have all made since 23 March now seem to have taken effect and as many aspects of life in the UK start to return to the “new normal”, so can activities at the Club.

Coronavirus Update #11
Published Mon 29 Jun 2020
Dear Fellow Members,
