Get Your Kids on the Water 🌊
June 25, 2024
Lauren Burke Meyer
Contributor
When you’re surrounded by the Chesapeake Bay and more than 400 miles of shoreline, getting your kids out on the water isn’t difficult. With Annapolis being the “Sailing Capital of the World,” it’s no wonder you can find loads of opportunities for kids to try their hand at the popular pastime. Here’s a round-up of five fun ways to get kids out on the water this summer – with sailing options and beyond!
Eastport Yacht Club (EYC)
Combing price and quality, Eastport Yacht Club, provides a top-notch option for kids looking to learn to sail. EYC Summer Sailing Camp deigns programs focusing on safety, high-quality boats and equipment, and a 1:4 instructor-to-student ratio.
According to EYC, “ We do not just teach skills, our students learn to LOVE the water, boating, sailing, and become good stewards of the Bay. ”
They offer a range of camps and levels (Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced) through August. Full-day camp sessions are 8:30 AM to 3:30 PM. Their Opti Camps have a Tots level for ages 6-8, geared toward young children who are comfortable on the water. This class is only offered in the evening this year, from 5:20 PM to 7:30 PM. Interestingly, EYC has a Keelboat Camps with a family option. Their programs are open to members and non-members, juniors, and adults. Registration operates on a first-come, first-served basis with limited class sizes. EYC gives camp discounts to members. So if you’ve waffled about joining , now’s the time to take the plunge!

Severn Sailing Association Juniors: Summer Sailing
Severn Sailing Association (SSA) offers diverse programs for sailors ages 5 through high school, including classes, clinics, and a regatta schedule. Besides learning to sail, they teach youth safe boat handling, seamanship, and sportsmanship.

311 First St, Annapolis, MD 21403
Capital SUP Camps
If you ask me, Stand Up Paddleboarding (SUP) is one of the greatest forms of exercise. It requires balance and provides a full-body workout while taking in your peaceful surroundings. Capital SUP has always been my go-to spot for all my SUP needs.
Their award-winning 2024 Summer Camp aka “Grom Camp” for ages 7-13, is at Quiet Waters Park. Kids spend four days learning how to paddle, enjoying “Party Barge” Races, an on-water trampoline, SUP fitness and games, oyster education, and nature walks.
For the first time, Capital SUP offers Teen Week Summer Camp at Nautilus Point for ages 12-15. The new camp brings a challenging aspect of paddle boarding for more advanced paddlers. Campers can fine tune their paddle skills, try a SUP race board, do SUP Yoga, and go on paddle adventures.
- This is the only Paddleboard camp that is licensed and uses certified lifeguards as instructors.
- All kids must wear life jackets in the water.
- Save 10% with a Paddle Membership .

You can also check out rentals for a family trip, leaving from Eastport – Nautilus Point, Quiet Waters Park, or The Point restaurant in Arnold. Starts at $25 per hour for 1-2 hour rentals, including single and double kayaks, Stand Up Paddleboards, and canoes.
Pirate Adventures on the Chesapeake
Arrrrr you ready for some summer family fun on the water? Pirate Adventures on the Chesapeake cruise down Ego Alley. Expect face painting, dress-up, a search for sunken treasure, and a live water cannon battle! Kick back and enjoy a cruise out on the bay as the crew entertains your child for 90 minutes on the Sea Gypsy.
311 Third Street Annapolis, MD 21403
Annapolis Sailing School
When Jerry Wood started the Annapolis Sailing School back in 1959, it was the first sailing school for adults in the country. And while it's still great for adults, it's great for kids, too. Especially in the summer. Annapolis Sailing School offers half-day and full-day camps for kids and even family lessons. The club even developed its own sailboat for training, the Rainbow 24. And once you've mastered sailing, Annapolis Sailing School offers ways to stay involved like its popular KeelBoat Club!

Sailing is like religion in Annapolis. Black kids had been locked out.
Barefoot and in borrowed life jackets, Jayden Hill and Rondell Franklin leaned back in their 12-foot dinghy, skimming alongside the sleek yachts and sightseeing boats of the Chesapeake Bay.
Neither had sailed before this summer, nor been so close to the Naval Academy ’s rocky sea wall, the fenced-in luxury homes or the secluded private beaches of their unequal hometown. Yet as they let out their sails, turning back toward Annapolis, both boys looked as comfortable as if they were chilling on a couch.
“It’s an incredible feeling,” said Rondell, 14, a soon-to-be high school freshman who lives in one of Annapolis’s public housing projects. “When you play sports, you have to do everything at a certain pace. With sailing, you can go on your own and take your time.”
Sailing is like religion in Maryland’s capital, where children from well-to-do families learn early at exclusive yacht clubs the way kids elsewhere might learn to ski. But while Annapolis once had stretches of shoreline where anyone could fish or set sail, the small town now teems with tourists and nautically themed bars, its waterfront areas Whiter, wealthier and less accessible than ever.
U.S. Naval Academy’s plan for new golf course angers environmentalists
Jayden and Rondell’s mentor, Thornell Jones, is among those seeking to turn back the tide. Jones, 84, pulled together the money this summer to send them and two other boys to sailing camp at the Eastport Yacht Club, where Jones is one of the only Black members. The club contributed scholarships for four more kids to attend its $450-a-week camps, which sell out months in advance. And a nonprofit partnered for the first time with a sailing school to provide a week of training to a dozen children from Black and Latino communities.
“When you learn to sail as a kid, you learn everything about the water and the wind, and it becomes part of you,” said Jones, still spry despite his spectacles and graying mustache. “If you don’t have access to the water, if you don’t have any connection to people on the water, it’s harder to imagine.”
Jones could imagine it growing up. Sailing was his boyhood dream, conceived when he was 5 years old and spotting white-sailed boats gliding past a New Jersey riverbank, a sight he still calls “magical.” But in the Jim Crow 1940s, no program would teach him. A half-century later, Jones retired from his IBM marketing job and moved to Annapolis, determined to sail at last.
But even as he organized Friday night races and joined the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary, Jones discovered that in “America’s Sailing Capital,” the sport was not much more integrated than in his youth. He was dismayed that children growing up a few blocks from creeks dotted with elegant sailboats had never noticed them.
Tips for getting started in sailing
That’s a systemic problem, noted Deni Henson, who grew up here in the 1960s, when the town of 41,000 was low-key and working-class, home to oystermen and crabbers. Henson recalled an “idyllic type of childhood” catching crabs and swimming along the Eastport peninsula, before soaring property values forced out most of its Black community. Fences went up, restaurants opened, and as multimillion-dollar homes replaced cottages and working boatyards, informal access to the water gradually disappeared.
“If you’re the average African American kid here, you live on a peninsula surrounded by the water, but you can’t get to the water,” said Henson, who still owns her grandparents’ home, next to an oyster plant that’s now a museum. “You can’t just go down to the beach like I did and swim.”
Over the past few summers, as pandemic-era crowds overran public piers, coves and the downtown harbor nicknamed “Ego Alley,” Annapolis officials have searched for solutions. Earlier this month, conservationists celebrated saving a fragment of a historic Black beach for a park. The city has launched a water-equity study and made plans for new kayak launches and an electric ferry.
But only so much can be done, since almost all of the town’s 17 miles of shoreline is privately owned. In Eastport, tensions over water access are rising as fast as the high-end, gated-off housing, and waterside neighbors are installing bushes to block coves where some used to paddle.
“Every rich person wants to protect their access to the water,” said Diane Butler, 60, a sailor who serves on the city’s planning commission. “They take five feet on one side, five feet on another, and there’s less left.”
A public sailing school could broaden opportunities and rival the powerful yacht clubs, which run the high school teams and charge junior membership fees. But some Annapolis leaders question whether the city could afford one.
“The issue isn’t access to the water,” said former mayor Ellen Moyer, who worked to preserve the street-end coves, including the handful now in dispute. “It’s the equipment, maintenance and liability.”
Jones has tried for years to introduce more kids to sailing, especially those living in areas tourists rarely see. He’s knocked on doors and talked to donors. He’s taught fifth-graders contours of the Bay. He’s preached that knowing how to sail can change lives, opening opportunities to high school teams, college recruitment, or well-paying jobs.
“Too many young people here don’t understand there’s a marine industry here desperate for workers,” he said.
Equally important, Jones hoped that by sailing for three weeks, through sunshine and wind, choppy water and the occasional rainstorm, the boys would emerge proficient enough to teach younger kids. He envisions developing “a nucleus of young Black sailors” to transform the sport for the next generation.
In the stifling heat of a recent morning, Jones’s four teenagers clustered with younger campers in a gravel lot, their expressions serious as they fumbled with knots. Two instructors, competitive sailors though barely older, demonstrated how to attach a lightweight spinnaker to sail off wind. Jayden, 15, sweating as he struggled with the kite-like sail, joked: “I was ready to cry if we were going to do this every day.”
Jones kept track of the boys’ progress as they conquered the tedious art of untangling ropes, raising sails and memorizing courses. He dropped by with sandwiches, cold drinks and nautical charts to teach them navigation. Though local nonprofits regularly organize tours of ships and sailing excursions on private boats, Jones didn’t want to settle for a tourist outing. He wanted the boys to handle boats themselves.

Not many young African Americans do. A 2020 nationwide survey of college sailors found that less than 1 percent were Black. The National Sailing Hall of Fame, which left Annapolis in 2019 for Newport, R.I., only inducted its first Black sailor last year.
“Coming up in the sport, I didn’t see a lot of people like me,” said Preston Anderson, 22, who sailed for Bowdoin College and organized the diversity task force that orchestrated that poll. “We’re really trying to find ways to attract new sailors, because you never know: You could have that walk-on on your team, and in four years, they could be an all-American.”
Ky’Niya Henson, 13, might be one. The eighth-grader, who is not related to Deni Henson, lives in a ground-floor apartment at Harbour House, a housing project that has no water views despite its name. Though she loves to swim, she avoids her community pool, worried about broken glass on the deck.
Three years ago, a mentor introduced Ky’Niya to sailing and helped her win scholarships to the Eastport Yacht Club. She initially felt shy among the other campers, in their Vineyard Vines swimsuits and proper boating shoes. Now, she says, she wants to sail all her life.
“It’s just so open. You see the water, and trees, and everything you don’t see on land,” Ky’Niya said. “It makes me feel really free.”

Jones’s boys felt the same. On the water, they came to savor a quiet that can be elusive in town. “It’s peaceful,” said Rondell, who lives in Robinwood, where during the second week of camp a man and woman were shot outside their apartment.
But the boys were most exhilarated by their ability to control a boat, to chart their own direction and “go fast” on windy days.
“We didn’t know much about it,” said Jayden, recalling his apprehension during Jones’s first lessons. But “especially now that we’re going out on the water, I just love it.”
Near the end of their final week, the coaches arranged a mock race. As the eight campers set out, trying to remember a complicated two-mile course, Jayden and Rondell drifted far behind. Close to the channel marker, though, a gust of wind snapped them to attention. With their coaches shouting directions, Jayden yanked the tiller, Rondell snapped the jib and they surged into the lead.
Their advantage would be short-lived as the wind shifted, but neither seemed to mind. Rondell’s thoughts were turning toward his first year at St. Mary’s High School, where he figured he would be too busy with football and basketball to join the sailing team. Jayden was looking ahead to football tryouts at Annapolis High; he announced he might sail “after I retire.”
Jones had other plans for them. “Triumphant” at the boys’ progress, he was already planning on signing them up for yacht club races, introducing them to paddleboard companies looking for workers, and another summer of lessons so they could become junior instructors.
The camp was three weeks, but the title, Jones had decided, was lifelong: Like him, they are sailors.

History of Kemerovo Oblast
People began to settle in what is now the Kemerovo region several thousand years ago. The indigenous peoples of the region were Shortsy and Teleuts. In 1618, Russians founded Kuznetsky stockaded town in the south of the present region to protect Russian lands from the raids of the Mongols and Jungars. In 1698, Mariinsk was founded.
In 1721, Mikhailo Volkov found “burning mountain” (a burning coal seam) on the banks of the Tom River and thus became the person who discovered the Kuzbass coal deposits. Industrial development of this land started at the end of the 18th century.
During the 19th century, the territory of the Kemerovo region was part of the Tomsk province. During this period, the first industrial enterprises appeared here: Tomsk ironworks, Gavrilovsky and Gurievsky silver plants, Suharinsky and Salairsky mines. Construction of the Trans-Siberian Railway was one of the main reasons for the rapid development of the local industry.
More historical facts…
In Soviet times, the region became part of the West Siberian krai, and then - Novosibirsk oblast. The development of the coal, metallurgical and chemical industries continued: Kemerovo Coke Plant, Kuznetsk Metallurgical Plant, a lot of new mines. The workers’ settlements built near the industrial enterprises quickly obtained the status of towns: Kiselyovsk, Osinniki, Krasnobrodsky, Tashtagol, Kaltan, Mezhdurechensk and others.
During the Second World War, this region was a major supplier of coal and metal. More than 50 thousand tanks and 45 thousand aircraft were produced using steel from Novokuznetsk. 71 industrial enterprises were evacuated to Kuzbass from the occupied regions, most of them remained in the region after the war.
In 1943, Kemerovo Oblast became a separate region that included 17.5% of the territory and 42% of the total population of Novosibirsk Oblast. After the war, the region continued to grow rapidly. On September 18, 1984, about 100 km from Kemerovo, a peaceful underground nuclear explosion was carried out, the power of the explosive device was 10 kilotons.
In the 1990s, the region’s economy declined. However, by the end of the 20th century, there were some positive developments - the development of the coal industry in the first place. Special attention was paid to the development of open-pit coal mining, as a more effective and safe way.

It was previously known as Kuznetsk until 1931, and as Stalinsk until 1961.
Founded in 1618 by men from Tomsk as a Cossack ostrog (fort) on the Tom River , it was initially called Kuznetsky ostrog ( Кузне́цкий острог ). [2] It became the seat of Kuznetsky Uyezd in 1622. [3] Kuznetsk ( Кузне́цк ) was granted town status in 1689. [3] It was here that Fyodor Dostoevsky married his first wife, Maria Isayeva in 1857. [13] Joseph Stalin 's rapid industrialization of the Soviet Union transformed the sleepy town into a major coal mining and industrial center in the 1930s. It merged with Sad Gorod in 1931. From 1931 to 1932, the city was known as Novokuznetsk and between 1932 and 1961 as Stalinsk ( Ста́линск ), after Stalin. As a result of de-Stalinization , it was renamed back to Novokuznetsk .
As of the 2021 Census , the ethnic composition of Novokuznetsk was: [14]
Within the framework of administrative divisions , Novokuznetsk serves as the administrative center of Novokuznetsky District , even though it is not a part of it.

The term of office of deputies is five years. In September 2021, elections were held for the Council of People's Deputies, following which the seats in the council were distributed as follows: 27 - United Russia , 2 - Liberal Democratic Party , 2 - A Just Russia , 2 - Communist Party . The representative of United Russia, Alexandra Shelkovnikova, was elected chairman. The Youth Parliament of the city operates under the City Council of People's Deputies. [19]  A whole network of bodies of territorial public self-government has been created in Novokuznetsk; [20] in total, 60 of them have been created in the city: in the Zavodskoy District - 7, Kuznetsky - 6, Kuibyshevsky - 13, [21] [22] [23] Novoilyinsky - 6, Ordzhonikidzevsky - 9, Central - 16.

The city is also a major railway junction with both local and long-distance trains. Local public transport is provided by trams , buses, and trolleybuses.  Novokuznetsk has a fairly typical southwest Siberian humid continental climate ( Köppen climate classification : Dfb ) with warm summers during which most of the precipitation occurs, and severe, generally dry winters. Snowfall is very frequent during the winter, but its water content is generally very low due to the cold temperatures.
