Bridge to Bridge Ski Classic

Don't forget this for 12th and 13th November. It is the 50th anniversary and really quite an international event.

Cliftonville Ski Club Water Ski Races

The ski races will be held on Sunday 20th November 2011 between 10am and 5pm.  The Maritime Services has declared this a special event and restrictions will be in place. The affected area is from Cliftonville Ski Club to Leetsvale Caravan & Recreation Park (yes, us) according to the Maritime notice.  However the area that they use really only extends to Dads Corner (round the bend of the river on the left)  and that is for a very short period of time, about 45 minutes - the time of day depends on when that race is held.  There will be a control vessel each end of the area advising people about entering this zone. 

Cliftonville Ski Lodge is at 1558 River Road, Lower Portland.
