A Sailing Lesson for Two - Lake Washington Sailing Club - West Sac
Invalid Image LinkSold
Invalid Image Link
Learn to sail on our beginner-friendly Sunfish sailboats! A Sunfish is a small sailboat which is easy to learn to sail, stable, and fun! It is sailed by one-person but can easily carry two people; in this case, you and your instructor. The Lesson would be about three hours, at the Lake Washington Sailing Club on Harbor Blvd. in West Sacramento. We are experienced sailors with various certificates/training. We will cover rigging the boat, the controls of the boat, how to use the wind to power the boat, and safety concerns. Then, on with the life vest, into the boat, and YOU will be sailing! As this is just an introductory class, you will sail with an instructor.

A lesson for you and a friend can be scheduled any afternoon between Monday, May 4 and Thursday, May 8 at 3:00 PM. We want to have a steady, mild wind for fun and safety. Should predicted wind conditions be unfavorable three days prior to our chosen date, we will re-schedule the lesson on a mutually agreeable date.

All participants must be comfortable around water, able to swim, and willing to follow directions from instructors. Ages 8 and above are welcome.

Part of the 2015-16 Sacramento Speaker Series, “[Malcolm Gladwell] is a master storyteller in a genre he created: illuminating the secret patterns behind every day phenomena, such as how ideas spread (The Tipping Point), the roots of success (Outliers), and his latest, David and Goliath, on the advantages of disadvantages. He is the author of five New York Times best sellers, a staff writer for The New Yorker, and was named one of Time magazine’s 100 most influential people.

Shrimp Gumbo at your Home-bo

I will bring a pot of authentic, New Orleans gumbo to your home on a mutually agreeable day. It's GOOOOOODDDDDD!

It starts with a red brick roux. From there, I layer the flavors First, the holy trinity of Cajun cooking. Then the homemade shrimp stock, made with head-on shrimp, 'cause the brains is where the goodness is. Then the herbs and spices, Andouille sausage and them shrimps. It's finished with some file to thicken it just right. It's got a kick, but not so spicy to disrupt the deep, deep flavors. Pour it over your rice and OOOOEEEEEE, you'll be on the bayou.

Pour it over your rice and OOOOEEEEEE, you'll be on the bayou. Also included are a salad and a delicious loaf of French bread. A hearty meal for 6 (or a meal for less with lots of yummy leftovers.)
