Panmure Lagoon Sailing Club's 50th Jubilee attracts good fleet

by Chantal Grass on 25 Aug 2013
50thBirthday2 - 50th Jubilee Chantal Grass

Panmure Lagoon Sailing Club (PLSC) was founded fifty years ago on 14th August 1963 and was known then as the Panmure Lagoon Aquatic Club, its aim was and still is, to promote yachting and to instruct young people in the handling of boats. The Club regularly offers training sessions to the public to introduce them to sailing.

PLSC enjoyed last weekend the closing ceremony of its Jubilee celebrations. The celebrations started in March this year with a dinner attended by old and current members at the Waipuna Conference Centre followed by a well attended RSA Laser regatta with just under fifty boats.

We had sailors coming all the way from Melbourne, Taipa, Lake Ngaroto and many Clubs around Auckland. Last Sunday twenty boats came down to race and to celebrate the Club’s fiftieth birthday.

For more information on our club, please consult our website www.plsc.org.nz.
