This has been a busy spring down at the Sailing Center. We have been hanging out with students from from the Barnes School and learning about the lake. We learned about how different people and activities affect Lake Champlain and how we can all take better care of it. The best part? We got to go sailing, too! We learned about the history of Burlington’s Waterfront and even took water samples from our keelboats. I wish I had done this stuff when I was in grade school!
We have also been hosting group sails with the Community High School of Vermont. Students from four separate locations meet at the sailing center once a week for a break from the classroom and some cool, hands-on lessons. We’ve had some nice weather and great wind to brush up on some skills.
This spring has been extra nice, and with camp around the corner, the summer is shaping up to be an excellent one.
