Tackers 2 will begin at 10 am. Please ensure the sailors are prepared and have sunscreen on prior to 10am.

On Saturday mornings, we run Tackers 1 from  8-10am, and Tackers 2 from 10am-12pm. Due to the tight timings, we ask parents to be on time for drop off and collections to allow the sailors as much time on the water. 

Since we have Tackers 1 prior to this session, the boats will be rigged and ready to go. We would apprectiate your support at the conclusion of the session to derig and put away the boats. 

Please remember to sign your children in and out
