This is one of the most important things you can do to help this club.
Many of the activities require resources of our club to make your sailing and racing enjoyable.
Our training program is one of the important activities that need your help.
Even if you can only do one weekend day or weekday afternoon this will greatly
aid our training program. Finding ways of training new sailors is vital to
continuing Jacomo Sailing Club. Passing on what we know is the greatest asset
we can give to those new to sailing. So if you are willing to give back to the
club with your time, use of your boat or both contact Hal Wood now!
We have several new young sailors looking for sailing experience. We need
willing skippers to help young sailors learn and experience sailing. If you
have time no matter how much or would be willing to take one of these as a
crew for a Sunday race, please contact John Sharp.
Promotion/Entertainment activities need help in setting up open sail days,
picnics, parties and general get-togethers. Contact the Promotion Committee
chair. If you have ideas on promoting the club, entertainment ideas or just
want to share your experience of sailing please contact us.
One of the main stays of our racing and on the water programs is the equipment
committee. They maintain all club equipment and any help you can provide will
help improve our sailing experience. Over the past several years we have made
major improvements to our equipment via boats and motors. It is volunteers
that make your Sundays enjoyable. If you have ideas on how to improve our
equipment or items that you think would better serve our Race Committee let us know.
The backbone of our racing activities is the Race Committee. We have several
volunteers who give their time to put on races each Sunday. We also have volunteers
for our special event races and fleet regattas. It is an excellent way to learn
about sailing by serving on the RC. We welcome any non-sailing member to participate
in the RC, contact the Race Committee chair if you would like to help.
JSC needs you to help so we can keep our membership costs in line and affordable.
Your contribution through volunteer work in the club is needed now. Every hour
you can spend will help JSC provide sailing to all that want it. I do not believe
that a few hours a couple times a year is too much to ask of the membership. The
benefit to the club and the sailing public is great. Do not shy away form this
because of a lack of experience, we can train you in any area where help is needed.
So make a little or a lot of time available to those who need your help.
