Recreation Connection SPRING SUMMER '26

Page 1


Dear Bainbridge Island Community,

As we welcome the spring and summer season, I’m continually inspired by the energy and creativity happening across the Bainbridge Island Metro Park & Recreation District. Over the past several months, I’ve had the pleasure of getting out into the community to audit classes, attend activities, and meet many of the instructors and volunteers who bring our programs to life.

One of the highlights has been seeing the remarkable range of ages, abilities, and experience levels participating in our offerings. From watercolor and pottery studios filled with focused creativity to active recreation programs buzzing with movement and teamwork, the breadth of opportunity is extraordinary. Watching participants fully immersed in their classes—and meeting talented instructors, some of whom I hadn’t yet had the chance to connect with—has been both energizing and affirming. The passion and professionalism of our instructors and volunteers are at the heart of what we do.

As someone with an art background who spent much of my childhood exploring oil painting through grade school, I have a personal appreciation for the arts programming we provide. Stepping into an art class today and seeing that same spark of creativity in participants of all ages is a powerful reminder of how lifelong and impactful recreation can be.

We are proud of the wealth of programming we offer. During the Comprehensive Planning process, we heard from many of you that the variety of options is one of our strengths. At the same time, we’ve also heard thoughtful feedback suggesting that continued investment in improving what we already have will further benefit the community. We agree—and that work is well underway.

You may see the impact of meaningful facility improvements across the Park District, including interior painting, new flooring, and significant capital upgrades. Projects include enhancements at Ray Williamson Pool; improvements to the Battle Point Park turf field; ADA bathroom upgrades at Battle Point Park; roof repairs at Eagledale Pottery Studio; resurfacing at Strawberry Hill Park tennis courts; and continued enhancements to Battle Point Park pickleball courts.

This summer, as we complete work on the turf field in June and July, we anticipate transitioning from crumb rubber infill to cork, an environmentally safe product that reflects evolving industry standards and our commitment to sustainability.

Looking ahead, we’re also excited for beloved seasonal traditions like Terry’s Sounds of Summer Concert Series, and Movies in the Park. We’re also excited to launch the Spring Carnival on May 2. This celebration of community and learning will be a wonderful opportunity for families and neighbors to gather, celebrate, and connect.

Whether you’re discovering a new hobby, refining a skill, competing on the field, or simply enjoying time together, we’re grateful to be part of your recreation journey. Thank you for your continued engagement, feedback, and support. I look forward to seeing you out in the parks and programs this season.

Recreation Connection is Digital!

Warmly,

Bainbridge Island Metro Park & Recreation District

FJ BEGINNER SAILING

Ages 11-17. Flying Juniors (FJs) are simply rigged, comfortable for skipper and crew, and one of the most common double-handed (two-person) boats used in high school and collegiate sailing. Smaller sailors may be paired up with bigger sailors so that they can effectively handle the boat or a capsize. On Monday we will introduce rigging procedures, basic knots, hand signals, basic terminology, and get comfortable with the boats at the dock before practicing capsize recoveries using the scoop method. Tuesday through Friday sailors will learn and apply their new knowledge about wind direction, sail trim, avoiding contact, getting out of irons, docking, tacks/gybes, body position, and FJ teamwork as skipper and crew.

How to Choose a Sailing Class/Camp

Sailing requires practice — like swim lessons. Pick the level that builds a solid foundation, and repeat if needed before advancing.

Class Options:

Opti Ospreys (ages 6–8): Fun, basic introduction with close supervision

Beginning Classes (Optis, FJs, RS Teras): Learn rigging, safety, and basic sailing through mini-lessons, games, drills, and group sails

Intermediate/Advanced: Higher-level skills, longer-distance sails, and racing

Important Guidelines:

If your sailor hasn’t taken the prerequisite class since last summer, take at least one in-season beginner or intermediate class as a refresher. Sailors with intermediate experience may skipper during Opti Open Sails or Eagle Harbor Dinghy Checkout.

Participants 6+ years old may crew if registered and all paperwork is submitted.

When in doubt, talk to the instructor to determine the best class for you or your child.
