Maples and Calder supports Sailing Club

sailingMaples and Calder has donated CI$3,000 to assist the Cayman Islands Sailing Club in purchasing a new sailboat to be used in their Government Schools Programme.

The Government Schools Programme provides training at no cost to students attending government schools across Grand Cayman.  The programme runs in 5-6 week sessions, with six rotations per year.  Groups of 12 to 24 students receive training four days per week, with lessons ranging from 90-120 minutes per class.  All training takes place at the Cayman Islands Sailing Club (North Sound), and at Frank Sound for schools in North Side and East End.

“We are delighted to be a part of such a unique and interesting programme,” said Henry Smith, Global Managing Partner at Maples and Calder.  “Our firm strongly believes in the ability of sports to develop focus, commitment and discipline in the youth of our islands and we feel that the partnership between the Cayman Islands Sailing Club and government schools will go a long way in fostering these characteristics.”
