Dedicated members of Shropshire Sailing Club have turned their dream of a new clubhouse into a reality after more than a decade of planning and fundraising.
The purpose-designed clubhouse at Whitemere near Ellesmere, replaces an old wooden hut and provides a modern, warm and energy efficient building, which includes changing rooms and showers, disabled facilities, a galley for catering, lounge and training room.
An official opening with past and present members who have been involved with the project saw the club celebrating the end of a long journey to upgrade its facilities.
Shropshire Sailing Club aims to provide access to sailing for all, including beginners, keen racers and those who simply “enjoy messing about in boats”. The club is an RYA Recognised Training Centre and also has RYA OnBoard recognition for its work with children and young people.
