Growing Participation - Midwest Women's Sailing Conference

One of the best things about Summer Sailstice is connecting with all the people and organizations who are introducing new people to sailing. The Midwest Women's Sailing Conference is one of those great organzations and the Milwaukee Community Sailing Center is one of the great facilities.  The Midwest Women's  Sailing Conference will be hosting their 5th Annual conference to be held at the Milwaukee Community Sailing Center  on Saturday May 16, 2015.

They have announced Katie Pettibone as the keynote speaker and guest instructor for the day.  From her America's Cup experience to coaching the all women team for the Sail Arabia Tour to the Rising Tide Leadership Institute, Katie Pettibone's sailing career has pushed women to be more.

Registration forms and Class Schedule will be on the website womenssailing.org some time after the first of the year.

If you'll be in Chicago during the Strictly Sail show in January they'll have a booth at McCormick Place S 2731.

May seems like the perfect time to introduce some new women to sailing since they'll have all their new skills ready in time to sign up and celebrate sailing on Summer Sailstice.  Perfect!
