Friday Night Socials

Cooking for one of the nightly dinners

Every Friday night, the Hoofer Sailing Club hosts a social for its members. The socials are a great place to meet other sailors, get to know the Board of Captains and instructors, and have a great start to your Friday evening!

During the warmer months (usually May through October) they are held on the lakefront. There is always tons of free food (although a donation is always appreciated), not to mention Hoofer's own beer service. There's no pitcher deposit and you never have to wait in the long lines at the terrace!

During the winter they are moved to The Vintage Bar and Grill (529 University Avenue). Vintage offers members of the sailing club discounted food and drinks, not to mention a great atmosphere for socializing.

Working at the Friday night socials during the summer is a great way to earn back your work deposit. You can easily earn four hours simply by helping cook, set up, and clean up. The best part is, you'll still get to socialize with all of the other sailors!
