Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, we have made the very difficult decision to cancel summer sailing camps for 2020. We believe this is the socially responsible thing to do and we do not take this measure lightly. The health of our sailors, staff, volunteers and the broader community members is always our priority. We look forward to sailing again in 2021.

Sailing camp has been the highlight of my daughter’s summer for the past two years! She loves spending the entire day outdoors and on the water. The instructors are knowledgeable and fun. I’m so glad the Gibsons Sailing Club continues to run the camp every year.

I want to thank you for giving my boys a wonderful inspirational and educational week of sailing. They both enjoyed it immensely and were sad to see it come to an end. Already looking forward to their next sailing adventure. We will see you again for sure. PS they are loving tying those knots!

Our daughter has been enjoying summer sailing lessons with the Gibsons Sailing Club for the past three years and every year gets better. We see her confidence in self and skills grow will each session. There’s a true spirit of camaraderie and fun competition on and off the water with all the things they do.
