Dear Friend of CBC, At its core, Community Boating Center (CBC) connects Greater New Bedford’s at-risk youth with mentors to enhance their lives.  Our flagship program is Summer Youth Sailing, which uses boating as a tool to help instill important life lessons such as integrity, sound judgment, and teamwork.  In 2015, 87% of the children attending our program were from low-income families who simply do not have the ability to pay. Supporting and sponsoring CBC’s annual fundraiser, the Opening of the Bay, is what enables these students to participate free of charge. All of us at CBC are determined to have our 10th annual event be the most successful one to date.   To do this, we need you, our highly regarded supporters and sponsors, to join us for this premier event, which has become one of the area’s most anticipated evenings.  Last year, with the help of our wonderfully generous supporters and sponsors, we raised over $70,000 to provide a safe, fun, educational, and healthy activity for the at-risk youth of Greater New Bedford. Your continued support is what will enable CBC to present these deserving kids with the opportunity to get off the streets and onto the water! Opening of the Bay is an unforgettable experience you will enjoy with valued business associates, potential customers, and friends while supporting a worthy cause that is making a significant impact on the youth in our community.  Guests enjoy dinner, dancing, and an auction overlooking scenic Buzzards Bay at New Bedford’s Fort Taber Park, and this year, we are thrilled to offer an even greater experience – CBC’s first annual Opening of the Bay Sailing Challenge.  Along with the recognition of the Gold, Silver, and Bronze sponsorship levels with a custom 3×5’ flag inside the tent, our Platinum Sponsors will be invited to participate in an afternoon of sailing just off Fort Taber Park.
