Official notice of the 38th Annual General Meeting of the Nepean Sailing Club membership can be found here along with a downloadable copy of the 2017 NSC Annual Report and details about the evening. This year’s AGM will be different, please read on….

I’d like to take a moment and thank you for your patience, support, and understanding as we have been working to keep our building dry.

Even faster than yesterday, thank you! Roster for Tuesday night, Wednesday AM is full.
The river-level, sandbags and pumping operations are all “holding”. The Club is mostly dry and your boats are all secure. Our original request for help will cover us until Tuesday May 9 at 09h00.

Amazing response people, thank you!! We’re in very good shape for help over the next few days….please have a look at the attached, updated schedule and let me know if I have you in the wrong spot…
2016 was a very good year for NSC and I am honoured to continue working as your Commodore for 2017.
