This is a volunteer run program put on by members of the Sail Fleet. The sessions offered will allow you to learn at your own pace and not feel the pressure of theory exams. \nPlease note\, no certification will be given through the course. You can sign up for just the classroom theory lessons only or choose to also add 4 on water sessions. \n\n\nDates:\n \nClassroom Lessons (2 Classes)\n· Sunday\, March 8  ·   9:00 AM – 1:00 PM\n· Sunday\, March 15  · 9:00 AM – 1:00 PM \nOn-Water Morning Sessions (4 Sessions)\n· Saturday\, April 18  ·   10:00 AM – 12:00 PM\n· Saturday\, April 25  ·   10:00 AM – 12:00 PM\n· Saturday\, May 2  ·   10:00 AM – 12:00 PM\n· Saturday\, May 9  ·   10:00 AM – 12:00 PM \nOn-Water Afternoon Sessions (4 Sessions)\n· Saturday\, April 18  ·   2:00 PM – 4:00 PM\n· Saturday\, April 25  ·  2:00 PM – 4:00 PM\n· Saturday\, May 2  ·  2:00 PM – 4:00 PM\n· Saturday\, May 9  ·  2:00 PM – 4:00 PM \nPrice:\n$150/person for ONLY Classroom Sessions (2 Sessions)\n$300/person for Classroom & On-Water Lessons (2 Classeroom + 4 On-Water Sessions) \nBook Now! \n\n\n\n\n\n\nFrequently Asked Questions:  \nQ: Does this give a certification?\nA: This course does not give a certification; it is designed to help you to start building experience and get you connected with some of the sailing community here at the club. We will have some additional program options becoming available in the spring for beginners to intermediate-level sailors running throughout the late spring/summer 2023 season. \nQ: What if I miss a class?\nA: We do not have any make-up classes planned; however\, the instructors are really great about summarizing previous lessons and helping you feel as though you are caught up with important information. \nQ: What if the weather is not very good?\nA: Rain or shine we will go out on the water. If there is a lack of wind during the on-water sessions\, we will still proceed as we can cater the lesson to cover plenty of hands-on experience topics. If there is lightning or a storm\, we will contact the participants and inform them of a new plan or refund. \nQ: Who should we contact with any questions?\nA: Email sailingschool@kelownayachtclub.com

SUMMARY:Safe Boating Awareness Week
DESCRIPTION:Join us in recognizing Safe Boating Awareness Week\, a national initiative dedicated to promoting safe and responsible boating practices as we head into the summer season. We encourage all members and those in our community to take a moment to review key safety guidelines before heading out on the water. \n\nSafe Boating Awareness Week highlights several important reminders that help protect everyone on our waterways: \nKey Boating Safety Tips\n\nWear Your Lifejacket: Over 80% of boating‑related drowning victims were not wearing a lifejacket—making this the single most important safety action you can take.\nBoat Sober: Alcohol and cannabis impair judgment and reaction time. Always designate a sober operator.\nTake a Safety Course: Whether you’re new to boating or experienced\, continuing education strengthens your skills and decision-making.\nPrepare for the Unexpected: Check the weather\, ensure your equipment is in good condition\, and be aware of cold‑water shock risks.\nFile a Float Plan: Let someone on shore know where you’re going and when you plan to return.\nUse an Engine Cut‑Off Switch: A simple yet vital device to keep you safe should you fall overboard.\n\nFor more information and resources\, visit our Boating Safety page. \nLet’s work together to keep our waters safe\, enjoyable\, and accessible for everyone this season.
