Summer’s Scrimmage Flotilla Beach Party: Let’s Sail to Canadian Hole

What’s New? Just a little friendly competition

Our sailors have learned so much this summer sailing season. We can’t wait to show off our skills in a little expedition scrimmage. Beach Party starts at 11am and continues until we leave with the boats. Sailors be rigged and ready at 10:30am. Drive or sail, but plan on attending this fun day at the beach with boats as we wrap up summer sailing session with a scrimmage and the awards ceremony for youth sailing.

Club members, parents, and kids who plan to drive, please chill out on the beach set up tents, snacks, music, and kick off the fun. Members – reserve seats on the Big Boats and sail flotilla style to Canadian Hole.

Once we are at Canadian Hole, we will have drinks, snacks, games, and lots of fun. All parents will have an opportunity to see your kids show off their sailing skills in a parade / scrimmage depending on the level of sailor and the weather. Before the boats head back to the sailing center, we will have an awards ceremony on the beach to congratulate our new and experienced sailors and graduate any sailors who have been invited onto the competition teams.
