Event Description
Set sail for adventure, Girl Scouts!

ready to get back on the water, this event is designed to make sailing
safe, empowering, and fun!
This is a drop-off event. Girl
Scout parents/caregivers are responsible for completing necessary
paperwork and waivers prior to this event.
Class capacity
is 12 Girl Scouts. Registration is first come, first serve, hosted
through TACS.
Program consists of 2 afternoons:

Event Supervision
This is a drop-off event. Parent/guardian or troop leader please check-in your Girl Scout(s) before leaving.
Price: $20/ GSMISTS Girl Scout
Badge/Patch: Fun Patch provided
Food: None provided
Supplies: Girl Scouts will be asked to demonstrate
that they can swim with the aid of their life jackets (this is really
to demonstrate that they are comfortable in the water while wearing
life jackets).
While Traverse Area Community Sailing has
a limited number of life jackets for use, students are encouraged to
provide their own for better fit and regular use after the class. The
program will sail in the rain so come prepared with clothing
appropriate to the weather.
Closed toe shoes are required
(tennis shoes, boat shoes, crocs, anything that encloses and protect
the student feet). Towels, a water bottle, a change of dry clothes and
snacks are often appropriate.
