Summer Camp Registration
is Now Open!
We are excited to announce that registration for this year's sailing school has officially opened! This marks the beginning of an exciting season filled with learning, growth, and, of course, plenty of fun on the water. Below is this year's summer camp schedule, which runs from June 17th through August 30th. It is important to note that Seattle Public Schools’ last day is June 21st, with the potential makeup days being June 24th-26th. Most private schools have their last day on June 14th, but we encourage you to check your school’s website to make sure. We want to express our gratitude for your ongoing support and enthusiasm for the CYC Juniors Program, and hope to see you and your families out on the water with us in 2024.
Why should your child’s sailing journey start at CYC?Our Equipment – Our fleet of Optimist Pram sailing dinghies are designed specifically for youth sailing; forgiving for the beginner, while providing a platform to teach the subtleties to intermediate and advanced youth sailors. For older sailors, we have a fleet of Flying Juniors (FJs) and Lasers. Our Location – Shilshole Bay is a perfect place for learning to sail. Summers are famous for bringing in light air conditions to the Sound that is perfect for beginners. Luckily, Shilshole’s local thermal winds during summer allow your child to have enough wind to sail. Our Instructors and Coaches – All instructors are U.S. Sailing certified, CPR/First Aid trained, and have passed a WA State background check. Many have years of personal sailing and teaching experience and some are collegiate sailors. We have hired a professional Director of Junior Sailing to take our program to the next level. Our Community – Your child’s sailing adventure does not stop after a few weeks of learn to sail. We are building a full youth sailing program that allows your child the opportunity to keep getting out on the water throughout the year. We focus on developing a family atmosphere where everyone is supportive of each other and new friends are found. |
