Recruitment 2024 Overview
ROUND 1 September 24th and 25th
~~DUE TO WEATHER, TRYOUTS ON THE 24th AND 25th WILL HAPPEN AT THE SOUTH BEACH SAILING CENTER~~
Days 1 and 2 focus on your interest in the team, whether you are an experienced sailor or are looking to get started in the sport! More than just ability, we are looking for enthusiasm, and willingness to learn from peers on and off the water. We want to learn more about how you see yourself in the team, and how the team could benefit from having you on it! Come to South Beach between 3-6 pm either day for a ~20 minute interview!
ROUND 2 September 26th and 27th
Day 3 and 4 are all about getting you on the water. We want you to get a taste of what sailing on Lake Michigan is like, and to see you in action. We’ll also take this opportunity to understand what your expectations from the team are, and to get to know you a bit better while sailing! For Round 2, you will be invited by email to come sail with one of our team members. After sailing, you will complete a final interview that will focus on your experience on the water. After all the interviews, you will receive an email with more specific details about Round 2
MEET THE TEAM
All prospective members that are invited to participate in Round 2 are also invited for a BBQ on Friday during recruitment week to meet the rest of the team and other prospective sailors!
DECISIONS
Final decisions are released by the Monday after Recruitment Week.
