PROGRAM - Our mission is to give our students the basic skills needed for a lifelong enjoyment of the sport of sailing, within a fun-filled and low pressure environment.
This summer our program will run for 7 weeks, from June 22rd through August 7th. This year the bonus session will not take place, because the ILYA Championship for the X Boat Class is hosted on Gull Lake by GLYC/GLSS.
Costs for programs will be: $150 for Sailing/Racing Skills Program and $75 for the Intro to Sailing Programs.
Reduced rate for early registration $130 for Sailing/Racing Skills Program and $65 for the Intro to Sailing Programs will be available for students that register before June 1st. This is a cost savings of $20 for the Sailing/Racing Skills Programs and $10 for the Intro to Sailing Programs
