Park City Sailing Association

With over 1000 participants in 2024, Park City Sailing is dedicated to enriching the community and changing lives, by utilizing the huge array of benefits of sailing for all people and all ages, and making the sport accessible and affordable to all.  

We are a community that is passionate about sailing and we strive to share that passion with individuals of all ages. Over the past 14+ years, we have developed educational, therapeutic, experiential, and competitive programs for kids and adults through our own initiatives as well as partnerships with other non-profit community organizations. 

We are especially proud and committed to our outreach programming, and our collaboration with groups such as Warrior Sailing, SLC Veterans Administration, Spectrum Sailing, The National Ability Center, and many others.

Sailing teaches kids and adults both,  life skills such as resilience, independence, decision making, self-reliance, and discipline.  It also teaches the value of fair play, respect, teamwork, integrity, inclusiveness, and caring for the environment.

Our organization thrives on grants and the generous and vital donations of money and time from our members and supporters. Donations help support our commitment to quality and safety as well as our scholarship program, community outreach programs, adaptive and therapeutic partnerships, our instructors and administrative staff, and the continued development and pursuit of our mission.

This year we are focusing our fundraising efforts on bolstering our scholarship and financial assistance program, maintaining our quality returning staff, and maintain the quality of our boats and facilities. New for 2025 we also have our sights set on beginning to build a fleet of RS Quest sailboats. The RS Quest would be the most versatile type of boat we have and would meet the needs of all of our programs.

Please help us sustain our mission while increasing safety, and growing our reach and expanding our impact. Please be a part in helping Park City Sailing be the best our organization can be. There are a number of ways to contribute.

MATCHING GRANTS: Matching grants help increase the value of each donation, and incentivize more giving! Email scott.vermerris@sailpc.org if you are interested in contributing.
