Our goal is to provide young people the opportunity to experience the lifetime sport of sailing, in a safe and fun environment.

As well as learning to sail, young sailors learn teamwork, self reliance, quick thinking, and a love of the environment.

Our History

The inaugural youth summer sailing classes were held in the refurbished visitors’ center close to the waterfront. The boats were borrowed from the Traverse Area Community Sailing program, purchased and even built from a kit donated to the school. Hundreds of hours of volunteer labor allowed us to open our doors for the first 60 students. Over the years, we have been able to add to our physical resources by building or procuring additional buildings to hold classes, boats, life jackets, etc. Through careful financial stewardship, generous donations, local grants and sponsorship, we were able to break ground on our current Boat House in 2015.
