Gibson Island Junior Fleet was founded in 1924.  Today, we sail Optimists, Lasers, Laser radials, 420’s, Ensigns and International 210's.   We also operate the sailing portion of the Gibson Island Camp, which teaches introductory sailing and how to be safe on the water.  Junior Fleet and Camp are integrated so that schedules are aligned and outreach is maximized.  Junior Fleet is available to any Gibson Island Club member’s child or grandchild who is a rising 3rd grader or who has turned 8 by September 1, 2010.  One does not have to be a junior member of GIYS to participate. Our by-laws have a junior member category, and juniors are invited to join GIYS at any time.
