Impact of Cyclone Hale and Gabriel on the Clubhouse
Cyclones Hale and Gabriel forced the closure of the MBBC clubhouse. But a building does not make a club, rather the members and supporters and so despite the lack of facilities, MBBC is forging ahead with its junior sailing programs out of a make-shift container and is also continuing to organize keelboat and catamaran sailing events as well as adult learn to sail classes. The volunteer committee, alongside dedicated community members, is working tirelessly towards the reinstatement of the club rooms. The building may be unusable for the time being but the mana of the club is very much alive. Still we rise!
