Mentorship

Each member of the Regatta Court is paired with a woman from the local business community who serves as her mentor, helping her reach her goals in high school and beyond. Our Mentors are exemplary women who work and live in Clatsop County. They serve as a guide, example and advocate for the young women they mentor. Mentors are selected based on their commitment to the program, previous mentoring experience, and enthusiasm for developing a mentor-mentee relationship.

Being able to communicate clearly and persuasively is a valuable skill in academia, business, politics and in your personal life. By developing your skills and confidence in public speaking, you will have a head start in whatever path you choose.
