Old Fire Extinguishers Needed!
The club is always looking for old fire extinguishers to use at our annual Flare and Safety Day training. At that training, participants get the valuable experience of practicing the use of fire extinguishers to put out small fires.
If you have any that have  expired, and you’re willing to donate them to this important cause, please reach out to Karl Scible by text at 407-707-2833.

SOS Wellness Policy
All participants attending SOS in-person events should be feeling well. They should not attend an event if they have symptoms of a communicable respiratory or gastrointestinal illness, are “feeling like something is coming on,” have a recent significant exposure to someone with a communicable respiratory or gastrointestinal illness, or have not waited a recommended isolation time after a recent respiratory or gastrointestinal infection.
In addition, a skipper/host may have further requirements or request other preventive measures (for example, crew or guests having received the currently recommended COVID-19 vaccine or wearing masks when below deck).  All in-person participants should expect to be denied admission without a refund if they fail to comply with this policy.
