Sierra Nevada Community Sailing

We are a volunteer-based, not-for-profit educational charity and a Nevada Corporation.

Our purpose is to teach water safety and boating skills to people of all ages and physical abilities in Northern Nevada.

We are funded by donations from the community and by the fees we charge to those who can afford to pay for lessons and boat use.

We are not a part of the City of Sparks nor do we receive any governmental support or funding.

A sister company, Nevada Boating, leases and manages the private docks and certain other marina facilities on the Sparks Marina and donates 100% of all profits to Community Sailing.

All revenues of Sierra Nevada Community Sailing are used solely for our teaching programs and to maintain our boats and equipment.

We accept donations of boats, boat trailers and boating equipment that can be used in or to further our programs.

Ahoy, you water rats!! Wake up all you hibernating sailors! Time to start thinking about boats and warm summer evenings and racing and lots of fun! Ready for Summer? Jump in right HERE.
