Shelley Sailing Club gratefully acknowledges the support provided by the City of Canning through the Community Grants Program that enabled us to install a portable air conditioner in our “start-box”.
With the support of a Small Grant we have been able to purchase and install a portable air conditioner into our start-box to be used by race officers and assistants during weekly club events and larger regattas. This constitutes a considerable improvement to the club’s facilities as the start-box used to get unbearably hot during summer afternoons.
The installation of the air conditioning unit is particularly appreciated by volunteer race officers who spend many hours in the start-box managing racing activities throughout the summer sailing season.
