I would like to say a big thank you to all the volunteer helpers who ensure that the event is a success and runs so well, particularly: all committee members, safety boat crews, club members, tractor drivers and helpers, launchers, officials and everyone that helps with setting –up, dismantling and assisting in this event.

When appropriate, please express your appreciation to these volunteers on the day – it makes asking them to do it again so much easier!

Jason Russell
Commodore











DIRECTIONS





If travelling from the south, take M25 to (exit no. 27) the M11. Follow directions to Cambridge, leaving at junction 9, the A14 towards Ely/Newmarket. Take A10 in the direction to Ely, then on towards Kings Lynn. At Kings Lynn, at the main roundabout where the A10 meets the A47, take the northerly exit marked A149 to Hunstanton. Keep following the A149 all the way to Hunstanton, approximately 15 miles (24km). On reaching Hunstanton you will see a small roundabout in front of a red brick water-tower, now converted to apartments. Take the second exit off this roundabout taking you over a brow and down a hill. At the bottom of the hill is another small roundabout, go straight over. Continue straight past Searles’ entrance for about 300yards (300m) until the road turns sharp right, at which point turn left, into South Beach Road. After about 100 yards (100m) turn right – you will see the Clubhouse in front of you.


CLUBHOUSE AND CAFE



The Clubhouse will be open throughout the weekend for all visitors.

On arrival you will be directed to where you may park your boat trailer and/or vehicle.

The Café will be open each day providing a range of hot snacks, teas and coffees etc.

The Bar upstairs will also be open.




ACCOMMODATION



Unfortunately the Club are not able to accommodate campers, caravans or tents. Overnight parking is available on Searles.

Please telephone 01485 534211 and ask for Reservations. Please let them know that you are a competitor in the Water Ski Race and you will receive a 10% discount. If you experience any difficulties when booking, please ask to speak to Di who will sort the matter out for you.
