Powered by GoogleI've been sailing from 8 years old, 45 years old now.And it is always been a passion. I am very skilled at sailing and have won awards in the past. I think the community boating programs are a very good source of activity for our youth. And also for adults.Sailing is a fun , physical sport that can be like riding a bicycle.You never forget how. So I support all community boating and learning how to rig ,tie knots,even navigation skills,like knowing where and how to catch wind in your sails.
the options are few, there are no areas covered by shadows, there are no water showers, very bad
I am a relatively new member and I love it. Everyone is friendly and helpful whether you are just learning or if you are seasoned. It is a community of people who all care about each other and enjoy sharing their sailing passion.
It's a nice clean place to go and relax, and go hiking on the trails, and boating on the water. You can't go in the water because it's our drinking water. And they cutting down trees to make a gazebo, and they're using the trees that they cut down to build it so there's no waste. Very good place to have a picnic or go fishing.
Nice place to hang out,hike or bike. Just a nice spot.
