SUMMARY:Introduction to Dinghy Sailing for Teens
DESCRIPTION:Calling all adventurous teens! Teens can join us for a one-day introductory sailing class. You’ll learn about small boat dinghy sailing in the Museum’s custom fleet of Split Rock Sailing Dinghies. Basics include how to sail a small vessel\, how to right a capsized boat\, and how to get out on the water and guide your vessel. \n\n\n\nThis is a class for beginners or anyone looking for a refresher class on how to sail. If you have sailing experience and want to take one of our dinghies out on the lake to enjoy\, check out our Weekend Sailing dates.  \n\n\n\nThe class will be held at the Museum in North Harbor. The class will have a break in the middle of the day for lunch. Please bring a packed lunch and plenty of water to stay hydrated throughout the day. Make sure to wear clothing you don’t mind getting wet and as well as adequate sun protection. The course will include practice of a capsize drill\, so expect to be in the water briefly.  \n\n\n\nDinghy Sailing for Teens is pay-what-you-can with a suggested rate of $125 for the course.   \n\n\n\nPlease note\, this event is subject to inclement weather and will be cancelled in the event of strong winds\, thunderstorms or heavy rain.

SUMMARY:Philadelphia II Open Hours and Collections Corner*
DESCRIPTION:This special two-hour event will feature artifacts from the Museum’s Barranco Collection and has been funded by a Project Grant for Vermont Humanities.\n\n\n\n\nSoldiers in the Revolutionary War not only fought on boats\, they also often lived on them for months. Step aboard the Museum’s replica of the Revolutionary War gunboat Philadelphia to explore their living and working conditions\, understand the mechanics of the vessel\, and even row the oars! Aboard the vessel\, staff will have real artifacts from Revolutionary War sites around the lake (including recent artifacts recovered by our archaeologists at Arnold’s Bay) for visitors to see\, touch\, and learn about! \n\n\n\nAccessibility: The Philadelphia II is currently on the Museum Green. There is a staircase leading up to the boat\, and the boat is in the middle of a grassy area. However\, the rigging and cannon from the Philadelphia II are nearby or on the surrounding lawn\, and our staff would be happy to talk about the vessel as well as display props on the lawn. Staff can also show artifacts on the lawn if needed.
