An evening of celebration for our centenary!
Our centenary 1922 Celebration Dinner and Casino will be taking place at the Club on Saturday 19th March, with special guest and after dinner speaker, Vendee Globe skipper Pip Hare.
The evening will start at 19:00 with champagne on arrival, followed by a lavish five-course banquet - full details below!
After dinner, the inspirational skipper and author, Pip Hare, will speak about exciting experience of the 2020/21 Vendee Globe and her next solo circumnavigation in 2024.
Pip has been a professional sailor since leaving school at 18 and has a career spanning close to 30 years. As she flew across the start line of the 2020/21 Vendee Globe, Pip was the underdog battling for her place in a fleet of the world's best offshore solo sailors. By the time she finished over 90 days later, she'd won the admiration of her peers and the hearts of her growing number of followers. Pip emerged, not just as the 8th woman to ever finish the race, but as the skipper who smashed expectations and pushed her old boat to a performance few thought possible.
