The Junior Sailing College Burgee Program is a special initiative created by the St. Petersburg Yacht Club to honor and celebrate former SPYC junior sailors who have gone on to represent the Club at the collegiate level. This program recognizes the dedication, discipline, and passion of our youth sailors — and celebrates their continued journey in the sport as they carry the SPYC burgee into the next chapter of their sailing careers. See below to learn more about who this program honors.
