Sail with us! Following is a letter we recently received:

"My grandson had such a wonderful time at sailing camp last week.  I wanted to thank you for providing such a special, rewarding and educational experience. 

First of all, the location could not be lovelier.  Talk about memories being made!  He was greeted by super friendly camp directors and the class was a smallish size so there was no crazy making (I taught school for 30 years!!). The fact that he was introduced to a whole new seaman vocabulary, learned to basically man a sailboat, share a boat with 2 other kids, watched for the boom, got to dress up as a pirate on the final day, and then sail to Dockton (had a real destination) for lunch, and play pirate games was beyond my expectations!! 

At pick up, the kids were always happily directed in a group game of different sorts.  No one was running around unsupervised and they all had smiles on their faces.  The camp leaders were courteous, helpful, well informed and knew how to deal with 8-12 year olds and also with parents/grands dropping kids off.  They were very reassuring.  Thank you so much for providing the best camp experience my grandson has ever had.  We'll be back year after year!!"
