Neges Nadolig Y Morlywydd a'r Gwobrwyo

Roedd Parti Nadolig y Clwb ar nos Sadwrn yn llwyddiant er gwaethaf y tywydd ofnadwy.

Roedd 150 o aelodau, gwesteion a ffrindiau wedi mwynhau'r noson lawen gyda bwyd a gwasanaeth rhagorol gan Hugh a Donna a'u timau.

Croesawodd Y Morlywydd, Bob Lowe, pawb i'r Cinio Nadolig cyntaf yn ein cartref newydd ac mae'r canlynol yn gopi o ei adroddiad a neges i'r rhai oedd yn bresennol.

Noswaith dda.

Croeso i’r cartref newydd Clwb Hwylio Pwllheli. Good evening and welcome to the new home of Pwllheli Sailing Club.

The currently leaky new temple to sailing in Wales.

I delighted to see so many folk here tonight – it is not something we could have achieved in the old Club for lack of space and facilities.

A Christmas message – be it from the Queen, the Pope or Archbishop – normally has themes about reconciliation and the family. So this, from your Commodore, is no different – except that it’s a one-minute sound bite.

Firstly, I would like to thank all our Club volunteers and the Plas Heli staff for their endeavours during a challenging year of change. I would particularly like to welcome Hugh and Donna, as Head Chef and Front of House lead - we have high expectations for the new season that I am sure together with the bar staff will be achieved.

Returning to the Christmas family theme, I have said on many occasions Clwb Hwylio Pwllheli Sailing Club is broad church – a family of folk, old and young, with varied interests - motor and sail cruising, racing yachts and dinghies and simply those who like ‘messing about in boats’.  

This mix requires mutual expressions of tolerance, cooperation and collaboration to succeed – so we must continue to listen to each other and work together.

And, in all this, there is for me, and others, an overriding obligation to ensure we introduce boating to new audiences, particularly local young people, for without new blood in the sport, there is an impoverished and unsustainable future for boating in general.

You, we, all have roles, as members and ambassadors, in the mission to keep the club vibrant and growing in size and stature.

So the Christmas message is unambiguous let us continue striving together throughout 2016 to keep Pwllheli at the pinnacle of sailing in Wales. 

Let’s make it happen. 

Diolch yn fawr iawn. 

Nadolig Llawen a Blwyddyn Newydd Dda i chi I gyd.

Thank you - Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all.

The evenings formalities concluded with the 2015 Prize Giving with a presentation to the following race and series winners.
