    ABOUT Greenwich Flying Squadron

    Greenwich, NSW

    WE NEED NEW BOATS TO SUPPORT OUR JUNIOR SAILORS.

    GFS is passionate about introducing the next generation of kids to sailing. Every Sunday you will hear the hum of delight as kids (as young as 7) take to the water.

    Having club training boats that are tough, easy to rig and fun to sail will ensure the continuation and ongoing success of our Junior sailing program. "Tough" means minimal repairs and down time, "easy to rig" means more time on the water, and "fun to sail" goes along way in building confidence and competence.

    With the support of Whitworths, Australian Sailing and Oziopti GFS have have sourced 10 training boats at a cost of $1,500 per boat. The club is seeking to raise for $15,000 to cover the purchase.

    Donations of all amounts are welcome, however those who are able and willing to contribute $1,500 will receive recognition in the form of having their family name noted on a boat.

    We hope you can help us build confident, resilient kids and the sailors of tomorrow.
