Katannah Sailing enables access to quality youth sailing experiences. Through the distribution of 'sailingships' and grants to community-based sailing organizations we hope to drive understanding of and love for the sport within a broader group of local children.
These unique opportunities, made possible by private donors, will allow 3 children to attend Intro to Pleon during the summer of 2021. To allow continuity and progression of skill development, these children will also receive funding toward Opti 1 (Summer 2022) & Opti 2 (Summer 2023).
The costs, including the sailor's contribution, are as follows:
