Launching the Future of Sailing

We’re excited to welcome back our Sailing Team and to offer local youth the opportunity to participate in local and regional events throughout the PNW while building the next generation of incredible sailors. While the program is still in its early stages, our anticipated yearly plan includes practices and regatta support from spring through fall. Athletes will have many opportunities to take their sailing to the next level and create lifelong experiences and memories as part of the Baker Sailing Team.

Please email the Head Sailing Team Coach at sailingteammt.baker@gmail.com if you’re interested in being part of this journey.
