'Messing about in boats' is of course at the core of what we do, but Membership of Girton Sailing Club gives you so much more than that.
With the fully licenced Clubhouse at the focal point, the social side of the club comes into it's own.
The Bar is pretty much open whenever our Illustrious bar manager is around. And there's nothing better than a cheeky 'cold one' when the racing has finished - The absolute best time to critique your performance and glean nuggets of wisdom from those who beat you.
Wanna make a weekend of it? Camping is available for members throughout the year. Tents, Tourers and Camper vans are welcome with electric hook as an option. (first come basis). With Social sailing on the Saturday followed by club Racing on the Sunday, every weekend is party weekend at GSC.
Throughout the year we have a number of regular organised events, (as well as the impromptu ones) where members can gather to enjoy the Family Friendly Community we pride ourselves on.
