Promoting
the Sport of Sailing The Grayhaven Sail Club of Detroit's Board of Governors and members welcome you to our website and the 2008 sailing season. We are an integrated group of Metro Detroit sailors, organized in 1992, who have cruised and raced many nautical miles together ever since. Challenge The Wind (CTW), our sail training program for youth, began in 1995. Our bylaws state that GSCD's purpose is to "foster the sport of sailing in
the Detroit Metropolitan community through the donation and coordination of the
human and financial resources required for the education and training of
underprivileged youth who want to learn how to sail. We endeavor to join
together all persons currently engaged in sailing and introduce new, diverse
people to sailing and to encourage their participation in sailing activities.
GSCD is committed to the advancement of safety at sea, knowledge of seamanship
and preservation of the environment." |

Challenge the Wind Youth Sailing Program...
Provides Metro
Detroit boys and girls the opportunity to learn the sport of sailing. The
program has been in existence for ten years operating under the guidance and
funding of the Grayhaven Sail Club of Detroit. In March, 2004 Challenge The Wind
(CTW) officially became a 501(c)(3) Corporation. We believe that sailing builds self reliance and team unity and, as an option to traditional sports, provides an alternative for many of our youth. As members of a community on an International Border, we want our students to have the chance to appreciate our great waterways. So, along with sailing skills, participants learn the value of water safety, preservation of our marine environment and the importance of security of our borders. |
