Congratulations to Joe Wilding for winning the 2008 Yachting Victoria Award       "Instructor of the Year"

Joe Wilding has been a member of Royal Brighton Yacht Club since November 2006.  He joined the RBYC Cadet Program under Club Captain Paul Woodman chairmanship accepting the role of assistant coach.  Joe's management and coaching skills as well as his desire to commit his energies to the training of young people was quickly recognized by the Cadet Committee which then led to the offer of managing the entire training program which Joe accepted much to the cadets committee delight.

Joe's commitment in maintaining dinghies and his desire to achieve results enabled him to lead the Victorian team to ultimate success winning all major trophies including best performed team at the most recent 79th Stonehaven Cup held in Grassy King Island.

Once again congratulations Joe on your achievements and we wish you all the success in your future.


            THE ICEBERGERS - A Photographic Essay by Jason Sammon

Opening Night: Thursday 24th July, 6pm - 8pm                                  Exhibition: Friday 25th July - Tuesday 12th August

Blending images taken underwater with land based images, this photographic essay on the Middle Brighton Baths ‘The Icebergers’ portrays a remarkable slice of local history. The morning routine of plunging into Port Phillip Bay, all year round, on warm and icy days alike, is a concept    most would shudder at. A small selection of Jason’s other work is also included; from the heights of the Himalaya to the coastland of Sri Lanka. Jason Sammon graduated from RMIT Photography in 1997 and has worked as a photographer at Leader Newspapers for 15 years. People have always been a focus of his work and capturing the poetry of peoples lives an endearing driving force to seek out new moments which give insight into who we are.
