Courageous Sailing Center
Description
The mission of Courageous Sailing Center, a self-sustaining educational program, is to provide a fun, safe, accessible environment that promotes life skills and values through the sport of sailing.
Courageous Sailing Center was established in 1987 as a 501(c)3 public charity in a joint effort between the City of Boston Parks and Recreation Department and the late South Boston sailing enthusiast Harry McDonough. It was McDonough's dream to create a sailing center that would teach children from all economic and ethnic backgrounds lessons in partnership and trust while delivering "the ultimate sailing experience."
Courageous has since grown into a dynamic, multi-faceted educational and family recreational facility. Students ages 8 to 18 develop an appreciation of the natural environment as they learn to sail on Boston Harbor. Through Courageous' Five-Step Program, young sailors develop essential life skills including leadership, communication, decision-making, and teamwork. Many students return to Courageous as Instructors in Training and Instructors, gaining valuable work experience while continuing to grow and mature.
