Open Day Monday 8th May

Published 16:08 on 24 Mar 2023

Our annual Open Day will now be held on Monday 8th May, from 11am to 4. We extend a warm welcome to anyone interested in the club to have a ride in a sailing or power boat, find out more about joining (including social membership) and enjoy "Tea by the Thames" in aid of the Ellen MacArthur Cancer Trust. The event has been postponed from the original date on 23 April due to ongoing uncertainty about the state of the River Thames.

Upper Thames SC is a friendly club with many family members - some sail, some don't, and everyone is involved in the social side and supporting all the on the water activities.

We are a Royal Yachting Association (RYA) Training centre, and also recognised for our Youth development and coaching. If you're a complete beginner or you've had a go at sailing on holiday and want to learn more, we have Saturday training sessions after Open Day, and longer courses in the holidays. If you prefer motor boats, you are welcome to join and help with the rescue boat team, or gain your RYA Powerboat qualifications, and support the racing taking place at weekends and on Wednesday evenings.

There are membership incentives for joining on Open Day.

Everyone is welcome to the Open Day, non-sailors and anyone with any level of experience.

On-water activities are subject to suitable weather and river conditions on the day.
