Timing
Our daily schedule is designed around those who also attend surf camps. The idea is that kids enrolled in both will be able to sail and surf in the same day and have enough time in between activities to allow for lunch and transport.
Kids may get dropped off for sailing up to 20 minutes before start of the session.
Foul Weather
We still convene if it's raining or too windy to sail.
Shoreside workshops take place in and around the boatshed where we focus on reviewing topics pertinent to boating and our local environment, along with knot tying, charting, video learning, art projects and kid friendly nautical movies.
High wind but still sunny days offer the possibility to explore the trails and coastlines of nearby Rockaway Community Park by foot and/or utilize the parks manicured sports fields for a friendly game of capture the flag and tug of war.
What to bring hat towel snacks backpack water bottle bathing suit rain jacket or poncho Closed toed shoes (that don’t easily slip off are required)

"We had a great time sailing with captain Sean and the campers of Aqua 101 at RISE. The kids loved being on the water while learning the ropes. Sean's excitement and guidance provided the campers with new skills and a deeper appreciation for our aquatic backyard of Jamaica Bay." -RISE
