Just wanted to say a massive thankyou to the WACKYS Scout Active Support team who ran the SPLASH event today on Fishmoor. Jack, Oliver, Naomi, Paul, Jonny, Scully, Jackie and Lee plus additional support from Fil, Adam and Dean and Lisa – at Feniscowles, England
We would like to say a huge thank you to all the volunteers and members within the LSSA! We would not be able to do what we do without you and all your hard work. This last year hasn't been easy, so heres hoping to a better year with plenty more opportunities.

Yesterday was the 2nd Saturday of our safety/power boat refresher days for instructors and safety boat drivers. A big thank you to instructors Loz, Kev & Neil for leading on the sessions, and to Mark & Sue for working hard behind the scenes preparing and maintaining the boats.
Fantastic day at Fishmoor yesterday! The equipment was prepped for the season followed by a much-needed sail on the water. Thanks to those that came down to help!
The LSSA are planning a new community water sports facility for young people in Blackburn with Darwen. This exciting project has been given approval in principle for a long lease on Council owned land at Fishmoor Reservoir!
