Juniors would like to recognize Perry Cameron for his contribution of his time, skill, and ultimately the creation of a completely electronic 2022 Sailing Camp Registration. We would not have been able to do this without his generous contribution. Perry, thank you so much, we are truly grateful!
Juniors are preparing for 3 weeks of Sailing Camp in June. We will be welcoming a total of 60 campers to join us at ECSC for summer sailing and a whole lot of fun. We have 3 counselors returning from last year (Olivia, Dunkin, and Julia) and we are welcoming 2 new ones (Nick & Drew) to the team. Also, Matt and Olivia are getting into shape for the 2022 racing season.
JUNIOR SAILING CAMP 2022
All three class-weeks are filled up!
Week 1: June 6 – 10 (12 – 18 years old)
Week 2: June 20 – 24 (8 – 12 years old)
Week 3: June 27 – July 1 (8 – 12 years old)
But, check the Web Page, there might be some late opens.
The 8-12 age group filled up within 2 weeks. We lost three instructors due to moving and/or going to college. We require all instructors pass the US Sailing Level 1 Course, Instructors course, CPR, and Red Cross certificates. Those that pass the first time, will have US Sailing Level 1 fees reimbursed. They start at age 15 and also must have an Indiana Power Boat Permit.
