Over the past week, we were given a great
opportunity to improve our sailing skills by attending an US Sailing Instructor
Course. It was an intensive four-day learning experience, which pushed us into
the challenge zone and we feel we have become stronger because of it.
On our arrival we were warmly welcomed by YMCA
Camp Chingachgook, which is situated on the beautiful Lake George, in upstate
New York.
The four-day course consisted of lesson
planning, learning how to get the best out of our sailors at Peconic Dunes 4-H
Camp, and most importantly how to keep everybody safe.
We would like to say a massive thank you to
Chris, Pam and YMCA Camp Chingachgook for an awesome experience.
Our four international sailing instructors
had a great time getting to know each other, being pushed to the limit, coming
out covered in bruises but evolving into an amazing sailing team. Bring on
Summer 2013 at Peconic Dunes!
