Chautauqua Lake Community Sailing Foundation
Teaching the community to sail, race, and love the sport of sailing!
Welcome to the CLCSF, where our goal is to provide an easy and affordable way for everyone to enjoy sailing on Lake Chautauqua. We focus on High School team racing, as well as youth through adult sailing courses and education. CLCSF is a Non-profit Community-based organization founded in 2015. Our boats are located just off of Lakewood Beach in Lakewood, NY.
Spring Sailing and Regattas
The Docks have returned to Lakewood Beach! We are proud to announce our newest safety boat to the waters this year as well. The Opti Clinic has begun and our Precisions are ready to return for summer.
We are also proud to announce that our annual July Fundraiser has begun accepting reservations – come join in the fun on Thursday, July 23rd, with auctions and live music – see our Fundraiser page for more details.
Summer programs are here! – May through August – Our High School/Teen and Opti sailing teams are open for new and experienced sailors. Visit the Registration page then select from our sailing options on our Programs page.
The summer season is focused on our high school team and Opti clinic for younger sailors. All skill levels are welcome. HS practices have ended however teens can still sail all summer with our teen programs. The spring Opti clinic is now under way and will conclude at the end of June.
Community Sailing will begin mid June.
As always, life jackets are available to all participants. We have adult sizes from Small to XXL, however Child sizes are not available so if your sailor is under 10 years old please ask and we will go over options with you.
More information on the current programs can be found on our Programs page. Don’t forget you can register online!
CLCSF proudly coaches and supports all local area high school sailing teams. Contact us if you’re interested in sailing for your high school. Not sure if you’re ready to join the team? That’s OK! Come down and sit in on a practice or two; interested sailors are always welcome at any time to see what it’s all about and improve your skills.
