Gifft Hill School Launches Sailing Team
The Gifft Hill School on island of St. John, USVI, has partnered with Kids and the Sea, Coral Bay Yacht Club, and the St. John Yacht Club to jump-start a competitive sailing program. The program will be open to middle and high school students from any island schools that do not have a sailing program. Sam Normington, head coach and program director at the Richmond Yacht Club in El Cerrito, Calif., will lead the program. The Gifft Hill School team is expected to practice from October through May in after-school sessions in Coral Bay using KATS equipment.
