Junior Sailing Program
Fee: $170 per child, plus membership fee

The Junior Sailing Program is open to all Cohasset children who will be ten years old by Labor Day, 2008.

Each Junior class meets for two hours a day, three days a week and consists of five different levels of sailing ability.

Participants need not have any prior sailing experience, as a team of certified instructors and junior instructors will assist Junior members in learning the basics skills of seamanship and water safety.

Each Junior Sailing Program participant will be required to pass a swimming test. At the end of the season, each participant will receive a certificate certifying his/her successful completion of the course and entitling them to progress to the next skill level the following season.
