In mid April the Mudpuddler Newsletter Autumn edition was forwarded by email direct to members. The online Autumn Mudpuddler can now be downloaded from the club website www.albertsc.org,au. The Newsletter has plenty of articles and photos of interest, and is worthy of a read and sharing with others with an interst in our activities.

The more settled Autumn weather has arrived and the water level in the Lake is close to its maximum following above average rains in April. It is a good time to visit the club and get out for a sail and catchup with club members and visitors.
