What are our SCIRA USA Committees?
The Snipe Class International Racing Association (SCIRA) USA Board establishes committees to direct day-to-day initiatives and business of the Class. All committees include the National Secretary, are led by Board members and may include volunteers.
How can I get involved?
If you are interested in joining a committee, have questions or ideas, reach out to one of the Board contacts, highlighted by an asterisk.
Our 2021 SCIRA USA Committees are as follows:
Fleet Building |
| Drives initiatives to help fleets around the country have resources to grow snipe sailing in their local area. Ensures we are socializing "what works" in successful fleets. |
Website Management |
