The Alumni Association of New York (YA) presents Young Alumni Sunset Sail
Climb aboard the Adirondack, a beautiful 80-foot schooner, and
experience a New York City sunset from the water on this evening
cruise past waterside landmarks. Join fellow McGill Alumni on this
picturesque two-hour sail away from the hustle and noise of the
city.
Illuminated views along the way will
include:
- The New York City skyline
- Battery Park, 20 acres at the southern tip of Manhattan where
artillery has been stationed over the centuries
- Ellis Island, the immigrant doorway to America from 1892 to
1954
- The Statue of Liberty, a French gift that arrived in New York
harbor in 1885 and has come to represent our nation's freedom and
ideals
Complimentary champagne, wine, beer and soda will be provided.
(Several rounds of drinks will be served, but not unlimited
amounts. We aim to create an elegant, relaxing, peaceful and safe
experience for all of our guests.)
The engines will remain shut off during as much of the trip as
possible.
What is Not Included?
Food will not be served during the sail, but feel free to bring
your own picnic.
PLEASE NOTE: WHILE THIS EVENT IS HOSTED BY McGILL
