Behind every great club is a team of dedicated volunteers. 💯

On September 20 at Harbourview Hall, we'll be honouring NSC's Past Directors as the Commodore and Membership Director present each with a Board Recognition Burgee—a small token of appreciation for the time, leadership, and countless volunteer hours they've devoted to our Club. 🚩

We invite all members to join us as we celebrate the individuals whose leadership and dedication helped shape the Nepean Sailing Club into the community it is today! ⛵️

Still looking for more racing after dark? 🤔 Join us this Friday, August 21, for the 7th annual Pinhey’s Point Sunset Time Trial! 🌊 ⛵️🏁

Set sail along the Ottawa River as the sun goes down, race out to Pinhey’s Point, and make your way back to NSC under the night sky. ☀️️➡️️🌙

The event is open to Interclub-registered keelboats from NSC, BYC, and CVGR, with boats welcome to race PHRF or JAM. And if you enjoyed Midnight Madness, here’s your chance to do it all over again — with an extra challenge: the marks aren’t lit! 🔦👀

So gather your crew, brush up on the Sailing Instructions, and get ready for one of the last summer evenings of racing from sunset into darkness. 🌅🌌

Our Dinghy Co-Op Program is proof that you don't need to own a boat to enjoy a day on the water. ⛵️🌊

Designed for members without their own dinghy, this volunteer-run program provides access to a shared fleet of Lasers, Albacores, and Hobie Cats. Members work together to help maintain the fleet, keeping sailing accessible and enjoyable for everyone. ✨

Whether you're looking to build your skills, get out on the water more often, or simply enjoy sailing with fellow members, the Dinghy Co-Op is a great way to do it. 💯
