Edgewood Ice going out – temperature going up.

Finally, a day over 50° and the whole place looks better.  
     It's been a long winter.  
     We've got a busy Spring ahead and a couple of things of interest . . . 

• REGISTRATIONS  65 sailors so far for the summer. Some of the Opti and 420 classes already "full".  Student accounts due April 15. 
   
• YOUTH SCHOLARSHIPS AVAILABLE – Rick MacNeil Scholarship Fund is ready to lend a hand to new Youth Sailors

The Sailing School board is making a push this year to help new Youth sailors get on the water.  The Rick MacNeil Scholarship fund is offering to lend a hand to families of Youth sailors, whenever the scholarship can make the difference between getting on the water or staying on shore.  

Scholarship Application online form must be received by April 9 to get into the first group of awards.  Whole process is confidential.  Registration should be done first; but payment is not required while the scholarship request is still being considered.  Scholarships can be applied to any class in the Youth 2015 Program.

Questions, suggestions, donations please contact the Scholarship Committee.
