SSWiSS responds to the World Sailing Organization’s Women’s Sailing Festival which is encouraging sailing organizations around the world to celebrate women sailors. Due to Covid, this event will be primarily a Zoom event with a Friday night opening social, and six panel discussions on Saturday. The panelists will discuss a broad range of topics including basics on sail trim, race strategy, ocean cruising and how to get involved with various sailing communities. This event is hosted by CYC with support from TSLAG (Team Sail Like a Girl) and SWSG (Shilshole Women Sailors Group) and is meant to bring together and build the community of women sailors of the Puget Sound/Salish Sea area.
There will be a separate registration for small in-person events on the water for Sunday.
This is a "pay as you can afford event" - with $10 or $20 suggested donation. If you would like to donate a different amount, please email or call the office at 206-789-1919 or office@cycseattle.org
All proceeds for the Friday/Saturday Zoom event will go to NW Maritime's Give Like a Girl Scholarship fund and Sound Experience's Girls at the Helm Program on Adventuress
