This is a collation of the all the Newsletter updates over the

14/09/08 - New FORUM for the NS14
We have received a number of emails requesting a forum,
so we have set up a free (you will notice it has ads) new
FORUM for the NS14. The old forum is gone so any vitally important
posts will need to be reposted on the new forum. Depending on
the usage, we will consider upgrading this feature (without ads)
in the future. The URL of the new forum is http://ns14.hqforums.com
SA end of season round up
Another series is sailed and another season is over. I can tell
you that there has been somewhat of a changing of the guard this
year with Debbie Colebatch and Ashley Barclay in Powderburn finishing
on top in the state titles with a clean sweep of six wins from
six races. Dave Gordon and Lisa Brock in Alternative Pathway reluctantly
but graciously handed back the trophy that they have owned for
several years. I’m sure they will continue to provide excellent
competition and will definitely be the ones to watch in the next
season. But congratulations to Deb and Ashley for a well deserved
win. They are also club champions this year. Read
