| Missed the safe boating camp? Good news! |
 |
| This camp returns March 14-19 — during Spring Break! The NBP/Spirit Of America Safe Boater Education Camp is a unique opportunity for potential boaters ages 10-15 to get both classroom education AND practical experience, at a low price. It will teach youths the lifelong skills of safe sailing, paddling and powerboating, with the ability to confidently teach others. The campers will be able to earn their Florida boating license. The camp is conducted in partnership with Spirit Of America Foundation, which offers a comprehensive program that also instills confidence and positive, lifelong ambitions, and fosters the spirit of teamwork in youths. This camp starts with classroom time that culminates with the state boater license exam, then moves to a water safety class before hitting the waters at NBP for on-the-water education days in sailboats, paddle craft and power craft. |

| Help NBP bring community together We want to bring kids into our youth programs who may otherwise not be able to afford the opportunity. In our summer camps and minicamps, children ages 6-14 learn life skills as well as on-water and off-water skills, and they make friends and lifelong memories. Help us bring those experiences to all our community’s kids — please consider a tax-deductible donation today. Click here to give today, and help bring us closer. Thank you! |
