About this Event

Find Your Flow on the Water

Ready to swap the pavement for the pier? Project SOAR invites you to join our veteran sailing series in the heart of downtown Wilmington. Whether you’re a seasoned sailor or have never stepped foot on a boat, this is your chance to catch the wind, learn the ropes, and connect with a community that speaks your language.

There’s something about being on the water that clears the head. We keep things relaxed, safe, and—most importantly—fun.
