1) Where is the subsidy coming from? The caterer will need to be paid for the dinner ticket!
2) Although the entry is free to the entrant, will the Association bear the cost to the hosting clubs (Instow and Thorpe Bay)?
How does it work?
Hi Andrew,
Panic not. The Sprint 15 Association will pay the host Club at the agreed prices. We are doing it to encourage young sailors to take part in our Nationals so the younsters not only get free sailing but they get the meal and at Instow they will get the T shirt too!
Hence Erling saying that it is " the deal of the century"
