Beer and Bunny on the Bay

Coinciding with the annual pursuit race, theBar Anniversary Cup, the afternoon festivities will take place on the newly revamped lawns outside the club as the sun sets. In the bay, sailors will be hard at work competing for the Bar Anniversary mug.

Commodore for thePoint Yacht Club, Craig Millar stated, "We are greatly looking forward to this event. The idea arose in a planning committee for our big year and it just sounded perfect for everything we are planning for our anniversary. I believe it is an inviting way to welcome folk who are not part of the sailing fraternity to our club, and for them to enjoy our facilities for the afternoon."

He continued, "If curries and beers are not your thing, don't worry as there will be other options available! It should be a wonderful late afternoon, relaxing on the lawns and soaking up the surroundings while listening to some live music."

Master brewers will be offering their tasty brews to patrons, while you can picnic on the lawns digging into Durban's famous food, a tasty and filling bunnychow. Confirmed breweries are family-run The Standeaven Brewery from Hillcrest, proud Durbanite craft brewery, Poison City and a few other options.

Music has been organised with Durban's very own Gavin Ferguson sharing his unique rock, soulful yet smooth sounds. Ferguson will be complimented with the gentle sounds from the young, emerging local duo from Lyall Erasmus and Nick Pitman. Erasmus, a wizard on classical guitar, is studying music at UKZN Howard College.She will be supported by the hugely talented Pitman on electric guitar.

Recalling, White shared, "The pub was officially opened on 28 January in 1953, and in celebration of that anniversary a silver mug which is an oversized beer tankard was donated and is sailed for annually. The date of the event has usually not matched with the actual anniversary, but in 2017 as luck would have it we have it set for the correct date."

R60 gets you in and allows you to sample your first beer.
