The Royal Geelong Yacht Club is delighted with the State Government’s announcement yesterday of continued funding and support for the Festival of Sails for another three years – from 2019 to 2021.
The commitment by John Eren, the Victorian Minister for Sport, Veterans, Tourism & Major Events was just one of the highlights of the first day of action at the Festival.
RGYC Commodore Chris Williams said, “We are delighted with the State Government’s ongoing support for this iconic Victorian sporting event.”
“As we head into our 175th anniversary in 2018, we look forward to continuing to deliver a truly unique event that sailing enthusiasts from all over the world – and the Geelong community – can truly be proud of.”
