Ahoy Sailors,
End of Summer Membership Social
Have you missed hanging out with your fellow sailors? Well this is your chance to come have a cocktail, grab some food, and catch up on all the end of year stuff going on within PSC!
Come out Monday, 15 September 2025 and spend some time with other PSC members and potential members.
Registration not required, but is helpful for planning purposes!!
It's a great opportunity to connect with friends and meet new friends. We will also be starting a new monthly tradition...club birthdays! Come enjoy some delicious birthday cake and celebrate all your fellow members born in since last session. If you want to be celebrated on your special month please update your profile details on the website to include your month and year.
Monthly Membership social meetings are held the third Monday of every month (3rd Tuesday, when Monday is a holiday). We normally have dinner together, hear from a guest speaker, and then conduct a business meeting. All year long, it's a good time!
Happy Hour and networking starts at 6:00 pm and meeting starts at 7:00 pm with a short ice-breaker. We recommend that you come early to have some food and drink and hang around with other sailors.
Do you or someone you know have a unique or interesting insight, skill, or experience related to some aspect of sailing you would be willing to present to our membership?
Please contact our Membership Commodore for more information.
Come join for a Wednesday Night Social Sail with PSC!!!
Here's your chance to take a little time after work (or maybe even leave the office early if you can) and join some of your fellow PSC members for an evening social sail on the Potomac.
Boats depart the docks by 5:30 PM at the latest (or earlier if a skipper has a boat full of people). All boats must be tied back up in their slips before sunset.
Come out and join us and practice your sailing. You might pick up a tip or be able to share your tips with each other in this relaxed atmosphere. Oh, did we mention that it's only $10 to participate (& free for Skippers)? How much better can it get?!
BUT WAIT, THERE's MORE! On the last Wednesday of each month, we will hold a Social Hour after we sail with FREE Club provided refreshments!

We hope to see you out on the water!

NOTE TO ALL: Capacity is totally dependent on how many Skippers sign up. No skipper, no boat. If you are considering being a Skipper (see requirements below), but need some orientation and/or a bit more practice, let us know. We'll figure something out.

The Hydrilla Cup is a PSC social event hosted by the Racing Squadron. Join us for a day of races, fellowship, and a cookout!
The main event will be a series of two to three races on the Potomac River in which teams of PSC members compete against each other to claim victory on one of our Capri 22's. We'll follow the racing with a cookout at the marina.
This is also a great opportunity to try out for PSC's 2026 racing team.
This event is free, but registration is required since there's limited space on the boats. If you'd like to share a dish for the cookout, please send a note to racing@pentagonsailing.org. If you'd like to attend the cookout but not sail, there's unlimited space to attend.
Note: This event is held on Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling; you must have an ID card (or a DIBDS card) that allows access to the base to participate.
