We are excited to host the 2021 LCYC Junior Sailing Camp this summer, which is scheduled for Monday, July 19 – Friday, July 23, the week before the Ensign Regatta. This week-long camp aims to provide intensive instruction, fundamental techniques of sailing, and development of safe boating habits. We will follow Michigan COVID guidelines, with the safety of our sailors, instructors, and volunteers being our highest priority. We anticipate a great week filled with sun, fun, and sailing!
The application period closed on May 15. Parents who submitted applications will be notified soon via email.
