REGISTRATION IS CLOSED FOR 2023 BUT YOU CAN ADD YOUR CONTACT INFORMATION FOR 2024!
Channel Islands Women’s Sailing Association welcomes you to our 2nd Annual AdventureSail® Day, Saturday, August 12, 2023! This year, we are partnering with the Channel Islands Maritime Museum (CIMM), the Tall Ship MYSTIC WHALER (Central Coast Ocean Adventures Foundation, CCOAF), and Channel Islands Yacht Club (CIYC) to provide a full day’s programming about "Women and Sailing Across the Ages.” This event is offered at no charge to a maximum of 40 girls, ages 9-14, who might not otherwise have an opportunity to experience sailing. Each girl may bring one accompanying adult, if desired.
The day will begin and end at Channel Islands Yacht Club (“CIYC”), 4100 Harbor Blvd, Oxnard, CA, with arrival at 9:00AM and conclusion at approximately 4:30PM.
Throughout the day participants will interact with women who sail and women who work in the marine or science (“STEM”) world. In the morning, participants will attend 3 separate short programs to be held at CIMM, CIYC, and MYSTIC WHALER and to include sailing images, stories, and hands-on activities.
In the afternoon, they will sail for a few hours on the ocean near Channel Islands Harbor. Up to 50 passengers will sail aboard MYSTIC WHALER with Captain Christine Healy and crew, and the rest will sail aboard more modern boats skippered by local volunteers. After sailing, all will return to CIYC for a complimentary lunch (menu TBD), discussion about the day, talk about the future, and event conclusion.
We hope all participants and accompanying adults will find the day informational as well as fun. On behalf of CIWSA, CIYC, CCOA, and CIMM, we look forward to meeting you and sharing our passion for sailing!
