It is with a mix of admiration and gratitude that the CA announces the retirement of our Membership Secretary, Jennifer Mitchell, after 28 years of dedicated service.
Sharing cruising expertise has been at the heart of the Cruising Association since 1908, and to recognise members’ location information contributions the Polaris Award was launched in 2022.
The Polaris Award is presented in appreciation of exceptional contributions by members to the CA’s Cruising Almanac, CAptain’s Mate and Cruising Guide resources.
The Cruising Association's prestigious annual Flag Officers' Lunch and Challenge Awards presentation took place at CA House, London on 27 January 2024.
The event, hosted by CA President Derek Lumb, awards the most prestigious honours conferred by the CA, marking an annual tradition to highlight the exceptional commitment and impact of volunteers.
The CA wishes all our members and partners around the world Season’s Greetings and Happy Holidays.
Please be advised that CA House will be closed over the holiday period, from 1200 hrs GMT on Tuesday 19 December 2023 through to and including Monday 1 January 2024. Regular opening hours will resume at 0930 hrs on Tuesday 2 January 2024.
The CA is thrilled to extend a warm welcome to Mandie Hart, the newest edition to our CA staff team.
Mandie steps into the role of Events Administrator, where she plays a crucial part in overseeing all CA events. Mandie is also the liaison between Ania, our catering manager, and the CA Sections and event organisers.
