Vashon Park District's Bruce Haulman Junior Sailing Program  We are back and registration for summer 2021 has begun!
 

Passwords: If you need to reset your password, please check your email for instructions afterward. The site does not prompt this.

VERY IMPORTANT:  When setting up new accounts, the Head of Household is the primary account holder.  Please do not add a child's name to the Head of Household field.  Add family members after you create the account in your name.  We must have your emergency contact information.  Thank you!

Please be aware that weekend private adult or family Sailing lessons are dependent on staffing availability, and registration deadlines are two weeks before the start of each session.

Youth lessons include 4 days of instruction (no overnights), Monday through Thursday, for much of the day.  You can see each course in detail if you click on the "Info" button next to the course you are interested in.  There are two tiers:  Beginner for ages 8-11 and Junior for ages 12-18.  Experience and previous classes may be taken into consideration instead of age.  Our apologies, but we no longer offer a discount for repeat sailors.  For reasons of confidentiality and safety, we cannot disclose which class a particular child is attending for those looking to pair their child with a friend.

Scholarships: 

VPD & QYC offer partial scholarships for youth in need, generally at 50%. Please follow the instructions and send a completed form (available on our sailing camp web page)  to info@vashonparks.org. Funds are limited and priority is given with proof of need.

COVID-19 GUIDELINES:

Washington State guidelines will be followed as applicable during your camp sessions by all participants and staff. We will send out details ahead of your session.

• Change of clothes with a towel
