JUNIOR SAILING & SCH
| JUNIOR SAILING & SCHEDULE |
| The Junior Sailing Program at the Shinnecock Yacht Club is dedicated to teaching the basic principles of sailing to beginners of all ages, as well as instructing our more advanced sailors in the finer art of sailboat racing. Our Junior Program in Optimus Prams and JY15’s is open to members and non-members alike. Our staff of four instructors (along with Bob deYoung, our club steward) is trained and certified by US Sail, the national governing body of sailing. The afternoon sessions are broken into two instruction periods to insure that each student receives the hands-on instruction they need. This also enables the Yacht Club to accommodate more sailors when schedule conflicts arise. The Sailing Program is an integral part of the Shinnecock Yacht Club, and the Board of Trustees welcomes & encourages active participation by members of all ages. For more information about the program, please contact the Yacht Club. Our afternoon program is open to all who reside in the Town of Southampton and are ages 8 and up. We instruct advanced students on Monday and Wednesday, 1-4 pm and beginner students on Tuesday and Thursday, 1-2:45 pm and 3-4:45 pm. On Friday’s we have Opti Race days and Adult Sailing from 2-4 pm. We also offer private lessons. 2011 JUNIOR SAILING SCHEDULE Click below to download • 2011 Adult Sailing Lessons Applications • 2011 Friday Opti Race Application • 2011 Jr. Sailing Lessons Application Mon, June 27 First Sailing Session Begins Fri, July 1 Opti Race 1:00 PM Sat, July 2 First Junior Race 10:00 AM Wed, July 13 Second Family Fun Night 5:30 PM to 8:00 PM Fri, July 8 Opti Race 1:00 PM Fri, July 15 Opti Race 1:00 PM Sat, July 16 Second Junior Race 10:00 AM Fri, July 22 First Sailing Session Ends Fri, July 22 Opti Race 1:00 PM Mon, July 25 Second Sailing Session Begins Wed, July 27 Third Family Fun Night 5:30 PM to 8:00 PM Fri, July 29 Opti Race 1:00 PM Fri-Sun, July 29-31 All Class Boats All Day *GSBYRA Race Week, Bay Shore YC Fri, Aug 5 Opti Race 1:00 PM Sat, Aug 6 Aspatuck YC Sunfish Team Race 10:00 AM Wed, Aug 10 Fourth Family Fun Night 5:30 PM to 8:00 PM Fri, Aug 12 Opti Race 1:00 PM Sat, Aug 13 Third Junior Race 10:00 AM Fri, Aug 19 Second Sailing Session Ends Fri, Aug 19 Opti Race - Commodore’s Cup 1:00 PM Fri, Aug 19 Opti Awards Ceremony following races 5:00 PM Sat, Aug 20 Fourth Junior Race 2:00 PM Sat, Aug 20 Junior Awards Ceremony following races 5:00 PM *Great South Bay Yacht Racing Association |
