KEY PROGRAM DATES:
Welcome to the MBC Junior Sailing Program. Registration is now open and students are
accepted on a first come, first served basis, with members receiving priority up until March 15.
Course Dates: Intermediate & Advanced: Monday, June 22 through Thursday, August 14,
for 8 weeks. Beginner: Monday, June 29 through Thursday, August 14, for 7 weeks. Intro to
Sailing Camp will be June 22-June 26 either morning or afternoon session.
Kick-Off BBQ & Orientation: Starting the summer off right in a welcoming and informative
manner is important to us here at MBC. We will be hosting a party for all Jr. Sailing Program
members and their families on Friday, June 19th at 6:00pm at MBC. During the party we will go
over the basics of the program, any requirements, but more importantly give you the opportunity
to meet the instructors, socialize and eat some great food!
Mandatory Swim Test will be held Friday, June 19th, from 10:00 –12:00 & 1:00 – 3:00. All
sailors must pass the swim test in order to participate in the program. Basically, the kids jump
into the river from the center dock, swim to the west dock and back without a PFD. Then, they
tread water for a minute. An instructor will throw a life jacket to the swimmer who will have to
put it on while in the water. Jellyfish are often present.
Haul Out Dinner: As is our tradition at MBC, at the end of the program, we host our annual
Haul Out Dinner. This is a wonderful way to conclude the summer program and celebrate each
child’s achievements. It gives us the opportunity to share with you via pictures, videos and
awards your child’s love of sailing. The Haul Out Dinner will be Friday, August 14th at
7:00PM.
Junior Sweeps Regatta is scheduled for August 3 – 6. There will be no instruction that week.
Participation in the regatta is highly encouraged, but not required. Regatta will be hosted by
SSYC August 3-4 & MBC August 5-6, no class on Friday August 7.
