2023 JSP Announcement

Post date: May 9, 2023

Dear LMCC friends and neighbors,

We are very disappointed to report that the Lake Mohawk Yacht Club has been unable to secure a

certified sailing instructor for this summer and cannot offer a formal Junior Sailing Program this year.

The U. S. Sailing Association certification requires instructors to be 18+ years of age, complete a

thorough training course on the water and have a powerboat driver license. We have some prior

students interested in becoming instructors and are hopeful for next year.

As an alternative for this year, the Lake Hopatcong Yacht Club’s summer youth program

https://saillakeh.com offers courses to the general public that some of our members have taken in the

past. The Morris County Sailing School also offers classes to adults and juniors on Budd Lake:

We hope that LMCC members who have some sailing experience will consider joining our Club where

you can continue to learn independently by sailing our Club-owned boats on Lake Mohawk. More info is

available (under Announcements) on our website: www.LakeMohawkSailing.org or call Membership

Chair Rich Miner at 973.729.5283.
