Falmouth Classic Weekend
June 13 - June 16
Falmouth Classic Weekend 13th arrival for 14th – 16th June 2023
As we all need to arrange our diaries for next year and we need to find and book our own accommodation for this event I though we should give the go ahead as there seemed to be enough support.
It would be very useful to know who is definitely planning on coming and who is thinking about it – could you email me. Also if you would like to just crew let me know.
Once we know who is coming we might be able between us to coordinate some accommodation bookings in the larger holiday homes.
I think you will need to individually fill in the Falmouth Classic Association application form when it is available. I will let send the link to the form when I get it.
Here is some initial information:
