The Board are extremely proud to announce that the very first NCCC annual calendar is now available to order. The calendar features photos from around the Arm and the local canals and by purchasing this little piece of history you will be supporting the Club and future events.

This year's pictures have been chosen from a selection of members' photos and the NCCC Archives. Excitingly, future contributions will be selected by members in a photo and art competition organised by the Commodore.

A draft copy of the calendar was circulated at the AGM and will be available to see in the Clubhouse. It is A3 size when hung up and the cost is £7.50 (plus £2.50 P&P if posting required) and copies can be ordered by emailing Heather Stanley - [email protected].

There is only a limited number of calendars available this year and pre-orders are coming thick and fast so make sure you reserve yours now. They make great Christmas presents too!

Commodore
