Easter Egg Hunt
Saturday, March 30
3 pm
Bring the kids for an Easter egg hunt, games, and dessert. There may be a visit from a very special guest for the kids too!
The club will provide drinks and dessert.
There is no charge for this event but please register and include the number of children and their ages. We want to ensure we have enough eggs for all and plan for big kids and little kids!
We do need some volunteers to help make this a success! We need lots of help to hide eggs Saturday before the event. Please come at 2 to help hide eggs. We would also love to have some people help to run some games with the kids. Please email social@grsa.org if you can help.
Beginner Adult Sailing
The Greater Richmond Sailing Association will host Adult Learn to Sail weekends throughout 2023! No experience needed! These two-day courses will teach the foundations of sailing skills: parts of the boat, points of sail, tacking/jibing, sail trim, knots, helmsmanship, and rules of the road. The weekend is hands on with more time spent on the water learning and practicing the skills, than in the classroom. Class size is limited to ensure a low student to instructor ratio providing for individualized instruction. Students will learn to sail in GRSA’s fleet of 19' Flying Scots. Please bring an adventurous spirit, life jacket (well-fitted Coast Guard approved Type III personal flotation device (PFD)), lunch, snacks, sunscreen, towel, a water bottle, and sailing attire for two full days of fun on and in the water. Fee includes a personal copy of US Sailing's current student training manual, a completed Certification Record Book through US Sailing, and two full days of instruction.
For questions about registration, contact Noel Losen, losenn@chesterfield.gov. For questions about the classes, email sailcamp@grsa.org.

Youth Sail Camps
The Greater Richmond Sailing Association on Swift Creek Reservoir offers the chance to enter the exciting sport of sailing. Future sailors ages 8-16 can come out for the first time or come back to further enhance their skills. These one-week camps are taught by U.S. Sailing certified instructors. This adventure-based program promotes leadership, self-confidence, sportsmanship, safety awareness and respect for others. Important: Students must be able to pass a swim test consisting of swimming 50 feet unaided. While on the water all campers must wear a well-fitted Coast Guard approved Type III personal flotation device (PFD). High school students can earn PE credits in Chesterfield County and Richmond City for these camps (please ask your school’s guidance department for details if interested).
