All three sections of the CCF held their Lent term Field Day on Wednesday/Thursday 27/28 April 2011.

The Royal Navy section made a short journey to our local lake at Chipstead for a day of sailing instruction and a regatta. This was the first experience of sailing for many of the group and last week’s tuition on how to right a capsized dinghy came in useful in the windy conditions. They decided to ‘reef up’ the Bosuns as the wind built up to a force four, not a problem for the more experienced sailors but a necessity for those who were in a dinghy for the first time. Read the full report.
