Behind the Mission of Oakcliff Sailing with Dawn Riley

What does it take to turn a passion for sailing into a career? Oakcliff is about more than becoming a professional sailor. Through its Acorn and Sapling programs, sailors discover their strengths, develop leadership skills, and explore career pathways in areas like sailmaking, rigging, composites, boat management, and high-performance racing. Executive Director Dawn Riley shares how Oakcliff creates an environment where athletes can explore every possibility, from Olympic campaigns and match racing to the America’s Cup and careers throughout the sailing industry.
