AbleSail Program

We are pleased to be the recipient of a Trillium grant to improve and expand the AbleSail program. Included in the new developments are new docks with wheelchair accessible ramps, main clubhouse accessibility, pathways from club, dinghy shed and pavilion to the water, and two Access dinghies. We look forward to being able to share the world of sailing with more people.

Contact: If you would like to take part, or know someone who is physically disabled who would enjoy a sailing experience, leave us a message at the Sailing Club
