Burnham describes itself as a welcoming sailing club. Its junior section explicitly includes children from absolute beginners to experienced racers, and membership covers sailors who race, sail for fun and cruise, plus kayaking and SUP activity.
Training
Junior sailing runs Friday evenings from April to September with volunteer coaches and safety boats, teaching children to be safe on the water and progressing through Optimists, RS Teras, Toppers, Lasers, RS Fevas and 29ers. The home page also references Friday evening junior training, and the calendar includes safety day and repeated junior sailing sessions.
