2007 Junior Sailing Program for PYC Junior Members*

PYC ’s 2007 Junior Sailing Program is tailored to bring sailing to a higher level of participation and enjoyment for all of our juniors by promoting improved sailing skills, safety, sportsmanship and camaraderie. The program is designed to address the needs of all our kids from their first class in beginning Optimist through competitive sailing in Optimist, 420s, Lasers and Scots at local, regional and national events. Although Sail Camp continues to be a core event for the program, it is only one part of a larger program designed to get kids on the water and sailing the entire year.
