Volunteer

Volunteerism is the wind in OWSA's Sails.  The wide variety of programs offer opportunities to teach, lead, and learn new skills.  Member talents maintain the programs.  Not only do members benefit, but volunteerism is extended to the broader sailing community as well.

We appreciate our membership support, time and heart, because you make OWSA possible. OWSA is an all volunteer organization, we have no paid employees and we rely on you to contribute your time and heart to one of our many volunteer roles we need to fill.  Which opportunity most interests you?

Volunteer Positions (we need you in this role as soon as possible):

Class Registrar

Fundraising Coordinator

Merchandise Coordinator

Community Service Coordinator (Suggestion to have organizations like Solve be the Cause)

Board Positions:

Vice Commodore for 2021

Social Director for 2021

Please contact OWSA's Volunteer Coordinator regarding volunteering at volunteer@owsa.net, or visit with any current Board Member about these opportunities at the next General Meeting.

Logging Volunteer Hours:

OWSA could not provide the great sailing opportunities it offers without our amazing volunteers.  We appreciate you and need your help ensuring you are logging your volunteer hours.  This supports our 501c3 requirements, helps recognize our exceptional volunteers and informs volunteer recruitment.

To log your hours, simply login to owsa.net, go to the member portal and log your hours.  You can do this once a month and summarize your volunteer activities or add an entry for volunteer activities for individual events.  If you have any questions, please contact volunteer@owsa.net.
