Brendan Sailing Partners
The Brendan Sailing Program and Brendan Corporation would not be
able to provide sailing sessions and opportunities for youth with
learning differences if it were not for the support of our partner
organizations.
METCOR/LSI is the Brendan Corporation’s largest contributor, and one of its original partners. Thirty-five years ago, CEO and Founder of METCOR James P. Muldoon started the Brendan Corporation and the Brendan Sailing Program to build self-confidence and self-esteem in children with learning differences, and through the support of METCOR/LSI, we continue to do so today.
Brendan Sailing’s original home – Annapolis Sailing School, has been one of the longest standing partners to the Brendan Corporation in its 33 years of existence. Thanks to their continued support over the years, Brendan continues to use Annapolis Sailing School as its home for its Annapolis based sessions.
Spirit of America Youth Boating and the Brendan Corporation have been teaming up to provide the best possible experience at Brendan’s St. Mary’s Residential Session in St. Mary’s City, Maryland. With the help of Spirit of America, we have been able to expand our curriculum to further enhance our sailor’s skill levels and sailing experience.
Since 2005, St. Mary’s College of Maryland (a Public Honors College) has been home to the Brendan Day/Residential Sessions in St. Mary’s City, Maryland. Held at the James. P. Muldoon River Center (Named after the founder of Brendan Corporation), St. Mary’s College Sailing Program allows Brendan Campers to use their equipment and facilities to give them a full experience of sailing and independence.
The Brendan Corporation works directly with the National Governing Body for the sport of sailing, the United States Sailing Association (US Sailing). All of our program instructors are at least US Sailing Level 1 Certified Instructors as well as incorporate US Sailing training curriculum.
