Access-Ability Sailing in Baltimore

Project Description

Join Baltimore Spartans for a rewarding day on the water helping individuals with disabilities experience the freedom of sailing through the Downtown Sailing Center's Access-Ability Sailing program. Volunteers will help set up boats, register sailors, and assist sailors and their families. All safety equipment will be provided. 

Sailing experience is not required to volunteer; just compassion, a willingness to learn, and a desire to have fun!

No sailing experience is required for the following volunteer positions: Greeter, Escort, Access Dinghy Rig, and Sailing Buddy.
