O'Pen Skiff Sailboat - Fundraiser
To: All YSR Current and Past Members
Subject: YSR’s New Small Sailboats -- Help us with one more!
The YSR board has been at work this offseason working to obtain four NEW small sailboats.
Your donation, large or small, will help us add a fifth boat to the fleet.
Small boats are critical to our program. New sailors need a small simple boat they can safely master and gain confidence on the water. Our current small boats break frequently and due to their complexity, the sailors can't rig them without an adult.
We have secured funding for three new O'PEN Skiff boats. (Read about them HERE). We need your donation to purchase a fourth.
We know you value the YSR program and support our efforts to provide exciting outdoor recreation for teens and young adults. The new small boats will improve the program with easy to rig boats requiring less maintenance.
Our modest fundraising goal for the final boat is $4,000.
Supporters have already contributed $1,000. If past and current YSR members like you donate, we'll be able to reach the goal.
Sincerely,
Patrick O’Leary
Commodore, Youth Sailing Resources
P.S. Please don’t hesitate. We need to order the boats soon to have them arrive for the 2025 season.
