A selection of events in and around Lymington and Pennington this month
31 August – Charity Bath Race & Open Day
This summer event has a carnival atmosphere and contestants make a standard bath into a sea-worthy, racing craft to take part in the paddle driven heats on the water just behind the club pontoon. Adults and children alike in fancy dress or otherwise have a wonderful time competing for the much wanted Bath Trophy as well as a vast array of other prizes. People are attracted by the racing as well as the BBQ and other stalls.
