Save the Sound & the JSA of LIS are coming together for a second year of environmental programming delivered to JSA member junior sailing programs in Long Island Sound region.

Save the Sound (STS) and the JSA present an easy way to incorporate learning about water and your local environment. We come to you! Our STS environmental intern will arrive with two hours of field work and programming to entertain young sailors and teach them about the Long Island Sound, the world in which their sport takes place. They will be taught about environmental awareness and how to make a difference through personal choices. Each offering is a two-hour block of activities led by a qualified Save the Sound environmental intern.

An example of a Save the Sound environmental session in 2024 at the Riverside Yacht Club may be viewed here.

• Price per Environmental Programming Block is $275. Up to 25 sailors per session can be accommodated, morning or afternoon, and assistance by at least one instructor or coach will be required.
• Schedule your Jr Sailing programs Environmental Blocks early to get the days that work best for your program.
• Contact Tricia Leicht at STS by email tleicht@savethesound.org to schedule a session at your junior program.
