Celebration of Life for George "Kirk" Culbertson

Please join us on Sunday, May 31st, as we gather to remember and celebrate the life of George "Captain Kirk" Culbertson, a beloved leader and longtime member of the Downtown Sailing Center community. 

As the DSC's first Executive Director and one of the driving forces behind the organization's early growth, Kirk helped shape the welcoming and inclusive spirit that continues to define the DSC today. His kindness, warmth, leadership, and love of sailing left a lasting mark on our docks, our boats, and the many people who had the privilege of knowing him. We are grateful for the time we shared with him and for the community he helped build. 

In recognition of Kirk's impact on the DSC, we are dedicating our Sunday Member Sail to Kirk and will be taking friends of the family out on the water between 12pm and the celebration at 2pm.  If you would like to sail, please RSVP to Natalie Culbertson.

Kirk's memorial will be held on Sunday, May 31, beginning at 2:00 PM under the pavilion. The gathering is expected to last approximately 60–90 minutes. 

Afterward, attendees are invited to head over to Little Havana to continue sharing memories and time together. 

All are welcome as we honor Kirk's life and the lasting impact he had on our community.
