Benevolent Beers: EASE
Thursday August, 15, 2024 5:00PM
We team up with EASE for another night of Benevolent Beers!
The Erie Adaptive Sailing Experience (EASE) program is organized and run by a team of over 25 dedicated volunteers. Started in 2001, EASE allows community members, primarily youth, with physical and behavioral/mental challenges the ability to sail independently on Presque Isle Bay. The current program allows up to 45 sailors each summer the opportunity to experience sailing in specially designed access dinghies. It is their goal to create a supportive, caring, environment for those with physical and behavioral/mental challenges to explore new adventures and build their confidence.
The funds raised at this event would support the safety of their fleet with routine upgrades and repairs. Funds would also be used to provide lunch to dedicated volunteers that donate their time every Thursday for 6 weeks (up to 8 hours each sail day).
