Wednesday, August 6, 9:30AM to 3:30PM

Our first experimental sail with the inmates of Alameda County Juvenile Hall...kids who did not make the grade to get into Sweeney. An effort to see if the sailing program will work for these selected students. Two sails planned, August 6 and September 13...only 2-3 students at first until we see how it works. Four POs will be on board to monitor the program closely. If these work, full scall class programs later.
