* For those starting at 1pm we will rig right away and get time on the water. With this extra time we will be warming up for that day's lesson or working with specific areas decided by the kids. They will return to the dock around the time the second wave is finished rigging to have a combined class on the group's lesson for the day.
The King Harbor Youth Foundation has an optimist race team. As young Opti sailors progress and become interested in high-level racing, they may be invited to join our Opti Race Team. KHYF will provide weekly practice and provide coaching at all events on the youth calendar. The Team events and support are outlined below.
Boat transportation and/or charters for the regattas are NOT covered by KHYF, although trailer transportation will be provided.

Parent Participation – Fund Raising
We expect all families to participate in our fundraising efforts. Our 2 main fund raising efforts are a spring Sail-A-Thon event with an auction and a fall family Oktoberfest.
We ask for your participation in soliciting donations for these events and volunteer a minimum of 20 hours per family.
---- Participation – Volunteer Hours
We need ongoing help from ALL parents of the team. We ask that all team families help at Youth regattas that KHYF hosts (Ken Hoover Carrie #6). In addition, we require all families to contribute volunteer hours to help make our program successful. We have detailed descriptions of many of the ways you can help. If you have not signed up for a volunteer task, one will be assigned to you. Here are some of the ways that parents can make a valued contribution:
. Join the Committee for our Sail-A-Thon event.
. Be a Parent Volunteer at a KHYF hosted regatta.
. Drive an Opti trailer or coach boat trailer to an away regatta
Class Membership
We strongly encourage all race team members to join both the United States Optimist Dinghy Association (USODA) and US Sailing. These memberships are required at many of the regattas we encourage you to sail in. Membership supports American sailing on many levels.
