This Sail Canada Championship is an annual event bringing together Atlantic Canada’s most actively developing competitive sailors in Olympic & Olympic development classes.
Although this is an event for the four Atlantic provinces, past events have seen sailors participating from Ontario, Quebec, BC and even France and Switzerland. It is a wonderful opportunity for youth in Saint John and surrounding areas to learn from Canada’s top coaches and race against competition that is truly international.
The organizing committee will be looking for volunteers on the water and on shore, before and during this event. If you would like to be involved in this premier event, please email Heather McBriarty at:
Volunteer jobs include: mark boat crew, safety boat crew, signal crew, time keepers, scorers, yard crew for moving dollies and assisting with launch/haul out, registration, information, breakfast and lunch service, and more. All volunteers get a snazzy event tee shirt! No experience necessary.
Sail NB will be holding a Race Management course, Level 1 and 2, on May 5/6th at the RKYC. All are welcome!
