Taco Tuesday was a big hit! Sadly still no wind t Taco Tuesday was a big hit! Sadly still no wind this evening (all day very light) so our Sunfish sailors cancelled the races and enjoyed tacos. 😁Thank you to all of our many member volunteers who donated dishes and taco fixings - and helped set up/clean up including making vegetarian items for some of our instructors - on their behalf, thank you. Special mega thanks to Karah Klein who coordinated it all, did all the shopping, cooked, made frosty frozen drinks - it was wonderful. We also had a lovely visit from Emma Prokesch who stopped down - everyone enjoyed seeing her! We’d love to see you too. How about the clambake? Tickets on sale now!!
Why sailing lessons? Community. Besides sailing Why sailing lessons? Community. Besides sailing just being fun and an awesome skill, our kids in race class have a tight bond. Many are student volunteers who stay after their shifts, have lunch here together, then a swim before their own classes. No technology in their hands… their very animated lunch discussion today was not about Tiktok or Snapchats but WWI and WW2, Germany and France of all things! They are all 12-13 years old who all started in beginner classes. They play ping pong here before class. They laugh and tell long wandering stories. They are amazing bright active helpful kids - and years here sailing helped build that. As a mom, I know this is special! So consider enrolling your kids in sailing lessons. Here are some of them with classmates and departing Head Instructor, Billy Sesack the night before he shipped out in the merchant marine!
There was literally zero wind yesterday. Look how There was literally zero wind yesterday. Look how flat the bay was - our intermediate students had a bit of a challenge there! Thanks Connor Cameron for pics from the water.
