Background The Rappahannock Yacht Club Junior Sailing Foundation (RRYC-JSF) is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization that was formed in the 2011 with to operate as a youth sports organization providing sailing education to any junior sailor, ages 8-15. RRYC s Junior Sailing is a grass roots program which relies heavily on parental and member volunteers for support. All boats used in the RRYC Junior Sailing Program are one-design classes, where the boats are identical in hull shape, rig configuration and speed. The types of boats that are owned and are provided by the RRYC-JSF are the Optimist, Laser and Sunfish which are 8 to 14 feet in length and are manned by one to two sailors. RRYC Junior Sailing is open to the local community and offers both learn-to-sail and competitive sailing classes; such as: inter/intra-club regatta weekend events during spring and fall months for all sailing levels; three one-week instructional classes, on and off the water sessions, in partnership with Premier Sailing School; two weekend adventure fun sails and a Junior Sailing Invitational Regatta hosted by RRYC and open to all Chesapeake Bay region Junior sailors. RRYC was founded in 1936 in Irvington, Virginia, to serve the interests of local pleasure boat owners. Together the first members acquired the present property on Carter s Creek off the Rappahannock River, just down King Carter Drive from Tide s Inn. In those early days, annual regattas featured races for both power and sail boats. By the end of World War II, however, onedesign sailboat racing began to predominate regattas. Hamptons, Snipes, Penguins, and Moths were especially popular. In 1941, a new structure was built, which forms the main portion of the present clubhouse. As interest in yachting declined in the 1950s, membership languished and the property was acquired for commercial use as a resort and marina. RRYC members continued to meet in the clubhouse they had built, however.the club was reorganized in 1970 and was able to lease the clubhouse and grounds the following year. By 1976, the membership reclaimed ownership of the property. The next few years saw upgrades to the pier and slips as well as the construction of the swimming pool that serves the club today. By 1983, establishment of the Rappahannock River Sailing Association and the first Rappahannock Cup races sealed the prominence of sailing on the Rappahannock River and its creeks. Since then, RRYC has maintained a strong racing program and an active cruising schedule. Impact The primary goal of the RRYC Junior Sailing Foundation (RRYC-JSF) is to provide financial support to the RRYC Junior Sailing program where the goals are to:provide training in all aspects of sailing, both racing and recreational.create a fun and safe atmosphere in which young sailors participate.develop sportsmanship, integrity and interpersonal skills.develop a respect for the river/ocean and the elements.learn and incorporate seamanship and safety.instill responsibility for boats and equipment.
