Each July and August, the Harry McDonough Sailing Program at Castle Island brings all the joys of summertime ocean sailing lessons to kids 8 to 14—and for FREE. This year, the program—founded in 1972 by Southie resident Harry McDonough—is entering its fifty-second year. Originally created with the goal of teaching the blind how to sail, it has expanded to welcome all children from all neighborhoods! It truly is a neighborhood gem!
