50th party
If you’re reading this, then, like us, you’re probably just as excited about Rockley’s 50th anniversary celebrations. We’re incredibly proud to have reached this milestone and even more excited to share it with the people who have helped shape Rockley into what it is today.
Five decades have brought lifelong friendships (and even a few marriages and babies!), along with countless unforgettable memories. There’s a lot of catching up to do in just one day, and we absolutely can’t wait.
Below you’ll find everything you need to know about the afternoon regatta and the evening party.
All that’s left for you to do is get your party gear on, enjoy great company, and help us create even more fantastic memories.
