Introduction To Sailing - 2024

 
Introduction To SailingHueston Sailing Association (HSA) is sponsoring its 20th Annual Sailing School Program at Hueston Woods State Park's Acton Lake. HSA Members will be on hand to provide instruction and on the water sailing experience.

The first Introduction to Sailing Class will be held  on Saturday, May 18th .

If you can’t attend this date, we will offer classes  again on Saturday, June 22th, Saturday, July 20th and Saturday, August 17th.

All classes are from 10:45 a.m. – 4 p.m.
.
All class dates offer identical content and include both on and off the water instruction in rigging, launching, and sailing. HSA will provide instructors, boats and life jackets.  Weather make-up dates will be provided if necessary.
.
Cost is $100, but you can add a partner for $50 and children (17 & under) for $25. (No more than $200for the family.) Class size is limited. Bring the family. Sign up early.
.
HSA also offers Learn to Sail classes. These classes are conducted on weekdays and on some Saturdays if they are available. In a Learn to Sail class, you will learn how to sail on your own in one of our boats or in your boat if you have one. Three days are usually all that is needed for most people and the cost is $250 for those three days. 

If at the end of the Learn to Sail sessions your instructor certifies you as being capable of rigging, launching, and helming the boat on your own, you become eligible to sail one of HSA's boats.
 
If you already know how to sail and would like to sail one of HSA's boats, all you need to do is sign up for the certification session and, if the instructor certifies you, you can begin sailing one of HSA's boats once you join the club. Cost of certification session is $75.
