A rainy weekend can’t stop our smiles! The Junior Program kickstarted sailing classes this week. Due to heavy winds and cold temps, Group 2 stayed on shore, while Group 1 was able to set sail on Day 1 with 5 new sailors! Juniors even got some extra practice in the rain on our BICs!

Thank you to our instructors for making junior sailing possible! And thank you to those who have served in the military for giving us freedom and safety!

Wow! What a season for the PYC Junior program! 2 weeks ago, Group 2 sailors went on a pontoon boat ride to the state park beach, and had a cannon ball competition! Gold fleet packed up the 420s for the winter and joined Group 1’s treasure hunt as the pirates!

Labor Day weekend the Juniors hosted their annual Fundraiser with 10 rounds of bingo. With the funds raised, they will replace our 36 year old opti fleet! Junior sailors were also recognized in an awards presentation for their hard work this season! Already counting down the days for Summer 2026!
