Sailors and Parents,
Who's ready to start sailing?!! The sailing team pre-season meeting will be Monday, August 26th @ 6:30pm @ The Bellingham Yacht Club in the downstairs room. This meeting is for all 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 in Whatcom County. We have many important topics to cover at the meeting including practice and regatta schedules and expectations. It will also be a good meeting to attend for new sailors interested in joining the team, so encourage anyone who might be interested to come.
Practice and Regatta schedule for the season are posted on the website: http://www.whatcomsailing.com/
REGISTRATION & TEAM FEES
Team fees are $350 for the fall season. As always, we don't want these fees to stop anyone from participating so please let me know if you need financial assistance. There is also a deposit of $35 for your team uniform (pinnie). If you paid this previously you do not need to pay it again. However, we need to collect all pinnies from previous seasons. Please let us know if you have a pinnie and please bring it to the pre-season meeting. For new sailors, the pinnie deposit will be refunded at the end of the season when you return your pinnie.
Registration is now open and online at whatcomsailing.com. Registration will close at 35 kids OR Friday Aug 30th, whichever comes first.
To completely register, please complete all steps listed on the Join page here. Remember, a sports physical is required, so get that scheduled ASAP. Registration and school clearance is required before you can practice. Please read all information on our website including the Sailor Packet here.
PRACTICE SCHEDULE: Practices will be Tuesdays/Thursdays 3:45 to 6:30. In addition, there will be a team meeting every other Wednesday (9/11,9/25,10/9,10/23,11/6).
Practice starts Tuesday Sep 3 @ 3:45 at the Bellingham Yacht Club.
