Sailors ages 8-19, come sail with us!
 
We'd like to invite 
everyone to join us!

Fall 2016 Race Team
Join us Sept. 17 at 11 am 

Sailing on most Saturdays starting at 11:00 and ending in time to have the sailor put his or her boat away by 16:00.

Even if you are not sure you'd like to participate, join us on the 17th to learn more!

Sailors in Optis, Lasers and 420s will participate in drills with our race coaches and experienced parents, group practices with other youth sailing clubs, local friendly competitions or just a fun day on the water. On occasion, for those families that wish to participate, HYS competes in out-of-town one  two day regattas.
 
To the left, listed under Upcoming Events, are dates for some of the regattas that HYS may participate in as a group. Prior to the regattas, a decision whether to attend, or not, will be made depending on the number of sailors who want to be involved. Some sailors choose to come to the practices only and never sail in Regattas, which is fine too! 

Bring a lunch, drinks and sunscreen. Cost is $300* for the fall season. Registration for Fall 2016 Race Team can be completed online at www.HalifaxYouthSailing.org
* Payment options are available, please contact Steve.

We pledge to promote ethical behavior among sailors and teach life lessons, which seek to build character, foster teamwork and strengthen respect for self, others and the marine  environment.

Join us on Sept. 17 at 11:00 to learn more about HYS Race Team!  Parents please plan to spend the first hour with us!

Fair Winds!
