2023 Community Events
Sail Sand Point offers community events throughout the summer. Whether you are a regular at SSP, or this is your first time on the water, we invite you to join us during the summer for free boat rides and enjoy our side of the lake.
Start of Season Volunteer Set up Day
Join us April 1st from 10AM to 3PM to set up the site for the season, to meet our other volunteers and get oriented to the site, and to get excited for the upcoming season! RSVP here!
Season Kick-Off Party
Each May, Sail Sand Point is abuzz with free boat rides, lawn games, BBQ & music as we celebrate the start of our Boating Season! Gather your friends and come on down to Sail Sand Point’s Season Kickoff Party on Saturday, May 20, 2023 from 4 to 7:30 PM on the pier.
Free Full Moon Sails/Paddles
Full Moon Sails are held from May – August on a night close to the full moon. We start with a dessert potluck and then hit the water. Volunteers will be skippering (or you can take a boat out on your own) RS Quests, Hobie Waves and keelboats, or you can come out and launch your own boat. All SSP boats will be off the water by 10pm. Boat spaces are on a first come first serve basis.
Summer Party- 25th Birthday Party in 2023!
Looking for a fun way to spend a summer evening? Join us at our annual Summer Party on the last Saturday in July and enjoy a lovely evening of food, drinks, music, and fundraising! Visit our event page for more information.
End of Season Volunteer “Take down and button it up” Day
The final volunteer work party happens in late September after programs end and typically includes lots of de-rigging, tarping and general stowing of sails and gear for the season. Sometimes combined with the Volunteer of the Year event SSP grills burgers and attendees bring a side to share.
Volunteer of the Year and End of Season Bash
Join us in late September to celebrate the end of the summer season and to recognize SSP’s fantastic boating community and fabulous volunteers. SSP grills burgers and attendees to bring a side to share, attendees reminisce about the summer, and the Volunteer of the Year is announced.
