Do I need a Clubspot account to register for events?

No, you can go through the checkout process with or without a Clubspot account. If you have an existing Clubspot account you can use that, but there's no need to create an account.

Can I register multiple participants at once? Can I register for multiple classes at once?

Clubspot allows for registration in multiple classes at the same time, but only allows one participant to register at a time. Unfortunately you will have to go through the checkout process for each participant separately.

What is the difference between credit card payment and bank transfer (ACH)?

ACH bank transfers pay for programs directly from your bank account and incur no fee, while credit cards include a 3.3% fee.

What is your cancellation and refund policy?

What is your policy on cancellations due to weather or smoke / poor air quality?

How do I apply a discount or scholarship code that I've received?

During the checkout process, on the "Order Summary" page, please look for the "+ discount code" link above your order's total.

Do I have to be a CYC Member in order to register for CYC Community Sailing Center events?

No. CYC Community Sailing Center programs were previously a part of CYC Seattle, a 501(c)(7) non-profit yacht club which required participants to be members of the club. The CYC Community Sailing Center is now a separate 501(c)(3) nonprofit, which means CYC membership is no longer required to participate in our programs.

That said, the Corinthian Yacht Club of Seattle remains an affordable and valuable community to be a part of, and your membership indirectly supports our efforts. To learn more, visit https://cycseattle.org.

What scholarships do you offer?

For households that are eligible, our scholarships can save you up to half (50%) of the cost of enrollment in any of our youth or adult sailing programs.

Do you offer reduced scholarships?

Yes. If you do not meet the eligibility criteria for a 50% scholarship, we may still offer a smaller scholarship based on household size and annual income.

How do you determine scholarship eligibility?

We follow the  Scholarship Eligibility Income Guideline provided by Seattle Parks and Recreation. Additionally, households that are eligible to receive SNAP benefits are eligible for our scholarship program.
