The Cave Run Sailing Association runs the Cave Run Youth Sailing Academy, a 501(c)(3) that hosts an annual summer Youth Sailing Camp for kids ages 6-18, teaching basic sailing skills on the water (sessions on July Tuesday evenings and Saturday afternoons at Jacobson Park in Lexington). Scholarships are offered to disadvantaged youth.

★★★★★Gail MuliettGrand Annual Regatta, great experience. Warm welcome! Great member provided food. Very enthusiastic Fleet. Growing youth program and Sunfish Fleet.
★★★★★Joni TrostCave Run Sailing Association looks to help promote what ever direction you decide to pursue. This can be many enjoyable days at the lake or a first step to the Caribbean and beyond. Cave Run Sailing has members that have explored the world and members that are excited about Cave Run Lake. You can find happiness at any level but you have to get started and keep at it. Make the effort to meet members and set your course.
★★★★★Roy WagnerThe sailing association has been great. I took ASA 101 a few years ago and my kids are getting involved with the Youth Sailing program. I highly recommend checking out the association and taking the beginner course. The youth sailing program is at Jacobson Park in Lexington, in the summer and is a lot of fun!
★★★★★Sam BigelowI took ASA 101 through Cave Run Sailing Association and I had a great experience! The instructor was super helpful, informative and patient for the hundreds of questions we asked and on top of that, just a fun guy to hang out with. We briefly met a few other members and they were all very friendly. I can't wait to get down there again and do some more sailing!
★★★★★Shunnan ChenI was googling ASA 101 course and found CRSA website. I am excited to know that I can learn how to sail in Kentucky, saved a trip and lot of $$. Jim responded quickly with my email inquiry. I finished ASA 101 at Cave Run lake with the help from Coach Jonathan. It is a fun experience...
