Waterfest, the first of what is planned to be an annual event, is scheduled for Sunday, May 3, 2015, at Jaycee Park in Fort Pierce. The purpose of Waterfest is to give the public an opportunity to try sailing, kayaking, canoeing, sail-boarding and other activities. There is no charge for admission and trying out the various types of watercraft is FREE! The sponsors hope to encourage more and better use of the beautiful waters of Fort Pierce.
Equipment and helpful instructors will be provided by the Treasure Coast Youth Sailing Foundation and Lisa’s Kayaks.
For those who don’t want to get out on the water, relaxing jazz music is being provided by the Fort Pierce Jazz Society. Snacks and beverages will be available, so come out and enjoy a spring day at the park. You can sit on the beach and watch small sailboats, kayaks and canoes coming and going from the park’s beautiful beach. You might just get the urge to try out one of the watercraft.
The leading sponsor is the Fort Pierce Yacht Club, assisted by co-sponsors, City of Fort Pierce, Treasure Coast Youth Sailing Foundation, Lisa’s Kayaks, and the Fort Pierce Jazz Society. For more information, visit ftpierceyachclub.homesead.com, or email getoutanddosomething@gmail.com.
