5 boats from the Conestoga Sailing Club raced at the annual Wellington Cup, held this year on Guelph Lake. CSC took top honours with all 5 boats placing in the top 11. Full race results are available here.

This year the club will be featuring 3 series of Wednesday night races, with the first series starting May 27th.  Our instructors will be the race captiains for all the races throughout the summer.  Skippers meeting at 6:00 and  races start at 6:30 pm. All boats are welcome.

June 7th, 1 – 4 pm, is our open house for 2009.  Come and enjoy an early summer afternoon on the water at the club. We  will take you out on a sail, enjoy swimming in the lake or a hotdog on the club.  You can also bring your own picnic.

It’s a great opportunity to learn about the club, the sailing camp for youth, the adult lesson program and our racing program for sailors of all abilities.

To members and friends of the Conestoga Sailing Club

You and your family and friends are invited to CURL with the Conestoga Sailing Club.  BEGINNERS and children welcome. CSC secretary Ken Nethercott will give some instruction beforehand, then we will split into teams and play a game – sort of, for fun. Brooms are available at the club. Bring clean rubber soled shoes as you will be walking on ice. Dress warmly.

This is a great opportunity to try curling and get together with other members of the sailing club for an evening on another form of water!. Last year, the group gathered for refreshments ( … read beer) at the club after the game and those who were available went out out for supper later to a local roadhouse. Ken will make a reservation..
