BE A BOOSTER

Picture
We invite you to support our nonprofit Community Sailing School @ Pistakee by volunteering for various fundraising activities. Past events have included our illustrious Gatsby Gala and also our engaging Murder Mystery. You might want to consider lending a hand during our summer sailing program and, of course, throughout the year.  Perhaps you would like to volunteer with such things as helping us keep our sailboats shipshape, or maybe you would like to be a guest speaker for our students. Whatever your special talent may be, we welcome you to join us in our effort to make our school the best it can be. Things are so much easier and more fun to do when everyone pitches in. We truly appreciate any and all help that you can give us. We can easily be reached via email or call us at 815-322-9745. Thank you!
