Happy ! This week, we're highlighting one of our volunteers from last summer and the 2025 Rookie of the Year, Sarah!

"Last summer I volunteered for Y-Knot Adaptive Sailing program...I slowly learned how to rig the sailboats and build confidence with my new skills. I met all sorts of people and at the end of the summer, I left feeling part of an inclusive community while enjoying the beauty of Lake George!"

We're looking for volunteers for Summer 2026! Dates for 2026 Sailing Sundays will be posted to our website soon. Stay tuned by checking us out online at https://pulse.ly/ufjacegmrk.
