On Monday, Feb 22nd, we will have our High School Sailing Team Pre-Season meeting, 6pm @ Lakewood. This meeting is for both parents and students who plan to be on the team or are interested in learning more about it. The team is open to all high schoolers and 8th graders in Whatcom County. We have many important topics to cover at the meeting including practice and regatta schedules, expectations, and required paperwork. It will also be a good meeting to attend for new sailors interested in joining the team, so encourage friends who might be interested to come.
Practice and Regatta schedule for the season are posted on the website: http://www.whatcomsailing.com/schedule.html
Practice starts Tuesday Mar 1st @ 3:15 at Lakewood.
FORMS / WAIVERS
Attached are the forms and waivers that all new sailors needs to fill out. Those who were on the team in the fall do not need to return the Whatcom Sailing paperwork, but will still need to verifiy eligibility with your school. New team members, please complete these forms and bring to the meeting along with team dues which are $235 for spring season.
All high schoolers (not 8th grade) sailors must do the required sports clearance with your school. This is an online process now at your schools website. Please go to your schools athletics page for instructions on registering. The attached page gives more information. A sports physical is also required, so get that scheduled ASAP. Spring sports clearances start tomorrow, so go talk with you school AD secretary.
All this paperwork is required before you can practice. For a list of everything that is required see the Join Page of our website.
We will go over all this in more detail at the meeting, but feel free to contact me if you have questions!
See you on Monday!
