Just to clarify the status at the Lion Park Model Boat Club.
The primary tenant of the property, Jersey Goldsmiths are indeed leaving the property in January 2013. However the actual owners are not. The club is currently in communication with the owners and all indications are that the club will not be moving in the immediate future. Sailing and club activities will continue as normal . Indeed we are at present expanding the infrastructure on the lake and also planning events for Christmas time and also into the New Year.
An interesting development is the approach from a local business man who currently runs a large farm retail business and is looking at expanding into a visitor park. The club is in discussion with the owner and one development is the construction of a purpose built pond tailored to our requirements. This would be in addition to the existing irrigation reservoir on site. This site offers many benefits including an on site restaurant etc, so the future looks exceedingly bright for the Lion Park Model Boat Club.

Well thats just the best news ever for the members, Can we now just get on with model boating here in jersey,
-
:-)) Can we know take it that there is room for another club or group here in jersey. model boating is for all not just members of one club, jerseymodelboats.com know have there own lake and all are welcome to come along and sail with us all, just fun in the sun ,
-
There has always been room for another group or club no one has ever suggested otherwise, People join a club because they want to not just because they have to.
What ever yor hobby is you will find somewhere to carry it out,
But you will always get people who think they are being picked on that is life,Some people moan about it others just get on with things,
Glad to see you are enjoying your hobby on you new reservoir,Good luck and happy boating :-))

The Lion Park Model Boat Club are still at there same location at the Lion Park in St Lawrence and use their own entrance and usually meet on a wednesay afternoon and Saturdays and Sundays.
But being as we have access to our pond 24/7 any member can be up the pond at any time they feel like it.
All visitors are welcome,check out our web site www.lionparkmodelbaotclub,com (http://www.lionparkmodelbaotclub,com)
