The team came 25th overall, and won The Under 14 Trophy (well done Harry and Toby!). Not bad for our first entry in the event as an independent team.

Whaley Water Weekend (Saturday 21st June 2008) Toddbrook Sailing Club took a stall at the Whaley Water Weekend in our traditional position next to the tent selling boat trip tickets. This year we took a Topper dinghy down to the event. See the report of the event in the Buxton Advertiser, including a picture of 3 of our youth members with the Topper. Our bric-a-brac stall raised over £100 on Saturday towards funding our youth programme. A big thank you to all the kids and parents who manned the stall in some terrible weather.
