Boothbay Region Sailing Club open house March 30
The Boothbay Region Sailing Club (BRSC) would like to invite all area sailors to learn more about scholastic sailing by attending our Open House Thursday, March 30 From 6 to 7:30 p.m. at Boothbay Harbor Yacht Club. Stop by for a bite to eat and to meet sailors, coaches and parents, while you learn more about the team and program.
The BRSC, which is offered through the Boothbay Harbor Yacht Club (BHYC) with support from the Junior Program foundation currently hosts the Boothbay Region High School and Lincoln Academy sailing teams. Both teams compete locally in the Pen Bay League (which also allows middle school sailors to compete) and the New England Scholastic Sailing Association (NESSA) regionally. As a result, all area students from 6th grade through graduation are eligible to practice and compete with the teams. Currently students from BRHS, LA, Center for Teaching and Learning, and homeschool students sail with us, but all area schools are welcome. The high school team will be starting practice shortly and practices at BHYC Monday through Thursday from 3:30 to 6:15 p.m. with regattas on weekends. While helpful, no experience is needed. Dry suits are provided, and other gear can be lent as needed.
In addition to the competitive program, we have a recreational after school Opti program for the younger kids starting in May.
For anyone who is unable to attend or wants more information, please reach out to head coach Chris Liberti at Chris.liberti@bhyc.net.
