“The Reach Initiative at Community Boating Inc. has made a positive impact among the youth in Community Boating’s junior program. Throughout the summer, I noticed how those in attendance became more aware of their environment and became more passionate about the sailing world. I believe this was due to the activities included in the reach curriculum that gave the kids real world and tangible experiences. The effect of the program became apparent when the kids in attendance began to ask more science based questions and their creativity in projects increased. The Reach program has become a staple at CBI where the kids genuinely look forward to learning and have taken on a new perspective in their immediate environment and the sailing world.”
