​Youth Sailing Program ​For students ages 10 - 17
Join us for the Youth Sailing Program, an exciting week-long sailing course where students aged 10-17 learn basic or higher level sailing on 8' Optimist Prams, 14' & 16' Capri sailboats, 14' High Performance 420 sailboats and other sailboats. Each day will feature Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math (STEAM) workshops, short "chalk talks," and learning activities on land and on-the-water instruction with games, drills, and informal races on the Rondout Creek and the Hudson River.
