Everyone needs an adventure! The Maxinkuckee Adventure Sailing Program goal is to create a lifelong adventure and love for sailing, water and our environment. Max Adventure Saturday Sailing, Max Adventure Sailing Camps are designed for ages 6-14 years to teach kids to be independent and comfortable on the water. First time sailors have the goal to learn how to single hand their own boat. More experienced sailors will build on their sailing knowledge and skills throughout the programs. We also offer Teen & Adult Learn to Sail instruction as well through private lessons. All participants have the goal of fun!
Max Adventure Sailing Saturdays
The Adventure Sailing Saturday Program is for children ages 6-14 years old. The 2024 classes were held June 8, 2024 through July 20, 2024 from 9-11:30am, at the Culver Town Beach, on Lake Maxinkuckee, in Culver, Indiana. 2025 schedules are expected to be similar dates. Participants must commit to being at all of the Saturdays. This program is run by our volunteers. A parent must remain during each lesson and be able to assist/volunteer as needed. Without our parents and volunteers, this program wouldn't exist!
This program includes a children’s learn to sail program and a dinghy racing program where young sailors are coached on the water to learn racing skills. The racing portion will coincide with Dinghy Racing which is open to everyone (adults too), sailing dinghys under 15 feet from 10:30-11:30 am.
The cost of Adventure Sailing Saturdays is $100 per child for the seven weeks of lessons. Participants who are a Family Member of the Maxinkuckee Yacht Club receive a 20% discount on the program fee.
