Last night Royal Cape Yacht Club donated R15 000 to NSRI.The money was raised by donating the entry fees from The Puma Twilight Series, a summer sailing series that is organised by RCYC in two parts.The first 9 races take place every Wednesday evening, starting around 6pm, from October until December. The second series runs from Middle of January until Middle of March. At the end of each of the two series we have an overall prize giving and party. Because RCYC has a generous sponsor for this series, they take the R250 entry fee charged for each boat, and donate it to a local charity. In the second series they always donate to NSRI.
