GROUP TYPES & RATES
Group Types
SSP’s group programs are customized to your group’s unique goal for the day – whether that be STEM, a scavenger hunt, or just fun on the lake!
You might be wondering, what kind of group am I?
Read on for group descriptions and then reach out to us to co-create a customized experience.
Leeway
Expanding what a sailor can look like
Leeway Groups are a nonprofits that primarily serve youth and adults who might not have the social or economic resources to discover the joy of sailing and small boats. SSP offers scholarships to Leeway groups so they can fully participate in what can often be a sport only for the privileged.
First Mate
Establishing connections for a common goal
The First Mate group is SSP’s ally in spreading the word of our mission. These groups value equal opportunity and make positive changes in the lives of youth and adults on grand scales.
Bowline
Building new skills outside the classroom
School group sailors tie us to the lives of youth and the community. We keep our relationships strong like a bowline knot to inspire children to further explore their interests beyond school.
Fender
Ensuring growth and valuable support
Private and corporate groups are the friends who protect SSP’s mission. We provide Fender groups with outstanding personalized programs so that we may provide the same to less advantaged groups at lower rates.
Private & Corporate Groups
