The League for People with Disabilities  will be joining us for an evening sail. 

The program is very similar to our Access-Ability Saturday event.

We ask volunteers to arrive at 4pm to help rig the boats. If you want to help, but you can't arrive until later please email Johanna to discuss schedule. 

Downtown Sailing Center will have the League join us at the sailing center from 5:00PM-7:00PM.

It will be a great opportunity for volunteers to experience one of our accessible programs in a relaxed atmosphere. Since the program has a smaller group of participants it allows for the volunteers to learn the ins and outs while helping an amazing group of people learn to sail. 

Interested Participants: This is a private event so please contact The League for People With Disabilities for more information.

The DSC needs volunteers to fill the following positions:
   
High Need Volunteers: sailing buddies - 8-11 - join participants    in the Access Dinghies- no prior experience needed, just a willingness to learn and have fun!

Additionally we will need:
  • rigger and de-rigger of boats - help get Access Dinghies in the water. 
  • transfer lead and aids- 3-4 - lead or assist in transferring participants into boats using Hoyer lift. 
  • Greeters and Escorts - sign in participants and help them down onto the docks 
There is training available for all of these positions, if you are interested in learning about a specific role feel free to call the office at 410-727-0772 or email Johanna Murphy, the DSC Volunteer Coordinator at:  johanna@downtownsailing.org
