Cal State Long Beach’s fall 2016 semester begins Monday, which means the new sailing semester is about to kick off!

Later this month, CSULB Sailing will host a number of activities for potential new members to get involved and learn more about what the Sailing club has to offer.

Here’s a look at our upcoming activity schedule:
