Kids Sailing Day Camp in NY Harbor – NEW SESSION ANNOUNCED!

July 17, 2019 by Denise Courter

PARTNER

Every summer New York Harbor Sailing Foundation offers 10 weeks of sailing camp right here in New York Harbor. Operation Optimist teaches kids (aged 8 to 13) how to sail on Optimist dinghies near the Statue of Liberty. Over the course of one week these kids build confidence, learn self-reliance, and gain a unique and amazing skill. Many kids return year after year, and those interested can make a goal of advancing to the racing team. This is a sport that all kids can parlay into a lifelong hobby. . . or help them get into a college that has a sailing team!

Camp counselors meet students at 9 am in both Manhattan (at the World Financial Center Ferry Terminal) and Jersey City (at the Manhattan Yacht Club). Parents pick up their sailors from these same locations at 5 pm. There is also a Teen Sailing Academy for beginner to more active sailors aged 13 to 18.

Don’t delay signing up your child online soon because this program always sells out! A new session is about to begin. Claim your child’s spot for a great experience on NY Harbor. To register, call (212) 786-0400.
