With only 24hrs to go until the 2013 Thornbury Regatta, the last minute preparations are well under way at TSC, with the boat shed galley ready to open its doors at 9:30 tomorrow morning for bacon butties.

Our big top marquee should be going up this afternoon, and we expect to see visitors arriving early this evening to pitch their tents and get settled in. Registration will commence from 9:30 tomorrow morning.

The forecast is looking good so we are all set for a fantastic weekend on the Severn Estuary.

Thanks to the #GetOutAndSail initiative we have bags of great prizes, so if you are at a loose end this weekend, then head to Thornbury!

Take a look on the Thornbury Sailing Club website for more information.
