JUDD GOLDMAN ADAPTIVE SAILING FOUNDATION
You’re Invited to an Open House and Lunch!

Judd Goldman Adaptive Sailing Program offers sailing opportunities for all, 
from the weekend sailor to the competitive racer.

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you 
didn’t do than by the ones you did do.  Explore.  Dream.  Discover.”
- Mark Twain

Since the Judd Goldman Adaptive Sailing Program (JGASP) was founded in 1990, 
over 12,000 individuals have experienced the thrill of sailing on Lake 
Michigan.  The goal of the program is to offer persons with disabilities the 
opportunity to "take the helm" on boats specifically designed for crews with 
disabilities.

Come to Our Open House!
Saturday, June 1, 2013
10 a.m. – 4 p.m.
Judd Goldman Sailing Center at Burnham Park Harbor, 1362 Linn White Drive, 
Chicago, IL 60605 (one block west of the Adler Planetarium)

Go for a sail on one of our 20 boats.  Enjoy a great lunch.  Meet new 
friends in a laid-back atmosphere along Chicago’s beautiful lakefront.  See 
the christening of a new boat!

Check out our classes and schedules, our leisure cruises and fleet of 
accessible boats.  Find out about getting involved in racing.  If you sign 
up for lessons at the Open House, you'll receive a free JGASP t-shirt.

The Open House and Lunch is free (aide included).  For all others, the cost 
for lunch is $6/person.  The Burnham Park Harbor facility features fully 
accessible docks, classrooms and restroom facilities.
