Programs

  • Program 1 [2020]

    For over 80 years, WYC hs conducted sailboat races on Lake Wawasee (Syracuse, IN) each weekend from Memorial Day to Labor Day. Four classes of one-design sailboats (E Scow / Lightning / Sunfish / I-20) allow 55 members to compete in races. In addition to weekly sail races, WYC also annually conducts a number of regattas that are attended by Sailors from the Midwest (E Scow and Hoosier Regatta); these were cancelled for the first time in decades as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the club was successful in hosting the US Sunfish Masters in 2020 that brought over 40 sailors from across the country to compete in this prestigeous regatta.

  • Program 2 [2020]

    WYC conducts five weeks of junior sailing classes during the summer (Jun - Jul), teaching over 140 children from ages 8 - 16 how to sail in a safe, fun, and structured environment that promotes sportsmanship, self-discipline, self-reliance, and a respect for nature and fellow sailors. The goal is to develop in each child an appreciation for, and a love of, sailing and confidence in his or her ability. The B.W. Duck Memorial Award is presented annually to the WYC Junior Sailing participant who is considered to be the "best sailor" of the season. The Alfred Tag Snook Award is presented annually to the WYC Junior Sailing participant who best demonstrates "overall excellence" in the Junior Sailing class. The honoree will have demonstrated the Corinthian Spirit through outstanding classroom work, a highj level of sportsmanship, respect for others, and sound sailing skills.
