Why donate to CORK?
As a Canadian not-for-profit organization, CORK relies on sailor fees, volunteers, and sponsorships. Every dollar helps CORK keep its fees reasonable, helps volunteers with travel costs, and helps to maintain the equipment needed to run these world-quality events.
Hundreds of volunteers donate their time and energy each year to registration, measurement, equipment, communications, ramps, race committee, safety, judging, and scoring activities. More than 60 volunteers can be on site at a time, some starting at 8 am and some not leaving until the last protest is heard! Volunteers come from across Canada, from the United States, and even further for some events.
Please consider making a donation to help us run these great events! Thank you for any help you can provide.
Board of Directors, CORK Sail Kingston
