Dear friends,
Please allow us to introduce ourselves. The Connecticut Yankee Council is the local chapter of the Boy Scouts of America, providing programs and services to more than 7,000 girls and boys and 3,000 volunteers in Fairfield, New Haven and parts of Hartford counties. When we heard that Beth Wright was retiring after 16 years of running one of the best sailing schools on the coast, we jumped at the chance to continue the legacy she built for the youth in our community.
Missions Aligned
For the past 16 years Beth has run the Sailaway Sailing School with this mission in mind: to have fun, make friends, and learn to sail the Long Island Sound. Our mission to serve the girls, boys and families of coastal Connecticut compliments that mission perfectly. Sailing is so much more than learning to operate a boat. It’s about becoming competent in safety and skills, being a leader while working with a team, and learning to love and respect being on the water, all while having a blast!

Registration Is Open
Our goal is to keep Sailaway the special school that it is. Registration is open for 2022 and we want it to run like it always has. We hope to get to know you and your kids and provide the best experience possible. Please feel free to contact us at communications@ctyankee.org with any questions about the Council or any of our Boy Scouts of America programs.
