Corporate Team Building and Custom Created Events - Intro to Sailing
This is a fun, introductory sailing session using a "quick-start" method of learning to sail Hobie® Wave catamarans. In a short period of time students participating in our introductory sailing lesson are out on the waters of Green Bay sailing on their own. We encourage individual growth by challenging one’s self all while fostering a love for the water and sailing. We look forward to enjoying a fun and safe day on the water with you!
We can customize a program to give you exactly the content and balance you desire. Want more socialization? Want more educational components? Concentrate on sailing basics or expand to learning the terminology? Dial up the fun and interaction to your group’s wishes. This program is based off our Intro to Sailing course, however, if your group has sailing experience we can adjust our programing. Or if you like, your group can rotate through sailing and kayaking.
Following the "on the water" portion your group is welcome to enjoy food and drinks at Captain Jack's at Louie’s Lagoon, located less than 50 yards from the beach. Depending on the time of your event we can make a bonfire on the beach for your group to enjoy and make s’mores.
Note: you must have your Photo Id to purchase alcoholic drinks at Captain Jack's at Louie's Lagoon. Captain Jack's at Louie's Lagoon reserves the right to deny service of alcoholic drinks to any and all individuals at their sole discretion.
