SUMMARY:Girls on Adventure!
DESCRIPTION:Girls on Adventure offers a unique opportunity for young women entering 7th\, 8th\, or 9th grade to immerse themselves in the world of the maritime sector\, meet inspiring professionals whose work focuses on the sea\, and learn the art of sailing aboard an authentic Tall Ship\, the 1926 Schooner Adventure. \nFrom July 15 – Friday\, Aug. 1\, participants will meet for a total of twelve\, five-hour sessions. In these sessions\, students will meet women working in marine and marine-related fields during visits to sites in Gloucester and Essex as well as during guest visits aboard Adventure.

Under the guidance of our experienced crew\, participants will learn the ropes of sailing through three dockside training days and six training sails\, mastering essential skills while forging lasting friendships. As the culmination of their journey\, Girls on Adventure participants will have the opportunity to showcase their newfound expertise by inviting friends and family for an evening sail in Gloucester Harbor.

SUMMARY:Step Aboard History: FREE Deck Tours of the Schooner Adventure
