Chicago Yacht Club Young Women Commending the Watch is just one of the programs we encourage you to learn about.

The Command of the Watch is a program for high school girls aged 14-18 that provides them with hands-on experience and experiential learning activities over five days, sailing aboard a traditionally rigged tall ship schooner in Lake Michigan. It is funded through scholarships provided by the Chicago Yacht Club Foundation. The girls learn lifelong skills of teamwork, cooperation, leadership, and awareness of environmental and maritime careers. Our goal is for young women to learn that they have the power to make a difference in this world and that this experience allows them to realize self-discovery that is often described as life-changing.
