Valhalla August Clinic Day 2

Valhalla Sailing Project Volunteer Day

Through sailing, the Valhalla Sailing Project (VSP) provides Veterans and Active Duty Military men and women the sense of comraderie that is missing from civilian life.  

I throroughly enjoy volunteering with Valhalla.  I have met some incredibly brave men and women who have given their all for our country.  The Summer clinics offered by the VSP provide an opportunity for those that have signed up to learn how to sail, and immediately get out on the water and practice what they have learned. 

It was truly amazing to see these newly minted sailors get that glint in their eye as they begin to catch on and enjoy learning how to make the boat move!  There was a great sense of comraderie among the volunteers and the new sailors on the J30 "One Love" as we sailed out and around the Bay, had lunch, and then came back into the Severn River and up Spa Creek.  All of the new sailors had an opportunity to take the helm and were enriched by this experience.
