Lake Champlain Yacht Club in Shelburne (est. 1887) runs a junior sailing summer program for ages 8-17 (or having finished 2nd grade), open to non-members, with eight sessions from mid-June to early August and full- and half-day options. Campers must pass a swim test on day one, and the program teaches sailing on Lake Champlain.

★★★★★Alicia DayGreat place for summer camp learning to sail and enjoying the beautiful location.
★★★★★Joe LordanI came here with members, and loved everything about the Yacht Club. The facility was very clean and well kept up, there was plenty of outside seating, and even a few happy pups in the water! It was a ton of fun to watch kids learn how to sail; it took me right back to my youth as a novice mariner.
