Volunteer
OWSA has many opportunities for you to become involved. Here are just a few places for you to contribute:
- A few minutes talking to new and prospective members at our monthly OWSA meetings. (Just do it - Let's make them feel welcome.)
- An evening hosting a Fireside at your home for new members. Don't worry, we supply the presenter. We just need hostesses. Contact fireside@owsa.net for details.
- A couple of hours crewing the OWSA booth at the Oregon Boat Show in January. Contact boatshow@owsa.net for details.
- A couple of hours or more helping to teach our classes. Topics vary. Someone helped you gain your skills - this is a wonderful way to pay it back. Contact education@owsa.net for details.
- Seasonal (Winter/Spring) work like being an Education Guppy to help organize materials for Education Classes. Contact education@owsa.net for details.
- A few hours sailing and mentoring as an experienced sailor. Wednesday Night Sails (WNS) aren't just for new sailors. We need your experience. Sign up and join us.
- A couple of hours or more helping to plan our Summer Picnic or a Nauti Drink. Contact social@owsa.net for details.
- One-day events like our Cool Maneuvers Docking Class (we'd love to have you on the Fender Crew)!
- Summer sailing and mentoring being a First Mate on Wednesday Night Sails. Contact FirstMate@owsa.net for details.
- Longer commitments like being on our OWSA Board.
