Special Announcement

Update on a former Detroit Community Sailing board member who was recently convicted of a 2020 sexual assault on a minor at his home in northern Michigan that occurred several years ago.
 
We have received questions about former board member, Bob DeClercq’s involvement with us. Here are the facts. 
  1. Yes, he was on our board. He was last active over 15 years ago. 
  2. His participation was limited to attendance at board of director meetings.
  3. He never had any participation in the operation of our program, never had any contact with our students, and never had any contact with parents.
  4. We take the safety of all our participants and staff very seriously and value the resources provided by US Sailing and US Center for Safe Sport. 

If you suspect child abuse or sexual misconduct, report it immediately to the Detroit police or to the Center for SafeSport by calling 833-5US-SAFE or online. Here is more information on Safe Sport including online reporting.

​Questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to me at [email protected]. 

Regards,
Harry Jones
President
