Local donor funds sailing scholarships A grant from the Goudy-Powell Fund of the Oregon Community Foundation will provide an opportunity for several underrepresented youth in the Eugene area to learn to sail.

The donor is active in the sailing community and wants to encourage others to join in this life-long hobby.

The $1,000 grant will help the recipients enjoy the beauty of the outdoors, learn valuable life skills, and make new friends in a safe and positive setting.

To receive an application for the Goudy-Powell scholarship or to register for a sailing class offered this spring and summer, contact the River House at 541-682-5329.

See pages 35-38 and 45-51 of this Guide for more information about sailing classes and all of the other activities offered by the City’s Outdoor program.

The Eugene Parks Foundation seeks support for Recreation Scholarships that provide access to recreation programs for community members that otherwise could not afford to participate.

The scholarships help to transform lives by engaging recipients in new learning activities.

“With the scholarship, my preschoolers have been able to take swimming lessons and my baby was able to take the infant class – a first for our family.” – Kristen, mother of five The Parks Fondation is also raising money to fund installation of soft surface tiles– part of the renovation at Amazon Park’s playground this summer. The tiles will expand accessibility to community members with movement disabilities.

Please donate today to help us expand access to recreation programs and the new Amazon Park playground.
