John Palmer's funeral is scheduled for 11am Friday June 8th, at St Georges Church (beside Sibbald Park, overlooking the lake). 

We are also going to hold an on-water memorial ceremony for him on the afternoon of Sunday June 10th.  The plan is to meet at our outer race mark for a "Scotch on ice" in remembrance of John - a small quantity of Scotch will be sprinkled on the waters.  The timing will coincide with our returning racers from Lagoon City, but the target is to hold the ceremony at Mark 4, at 3pm, so any boats leaving our harbour should be prepared for a ~2:30 departure to the mark - but the exact time will be determined by the schedule of boats arriving from Lagoon City.  Any boats that wanted to come by from other clubs (particularly LSIS racers) would also be welcome.
