Notes

Weller Days were originally created to provide yacht outings for children with cancer and their families. They began in October of 2004 and are now serving numerous children with special needs and their families, in three South Florida counties: Collier, Palm Beach and Broward.

Private yacht owners donate their vessels, time, and crew for a three-hour lunch tour of the waters. Most outings, the owners come along and new enriching relationships are often made between them and the participants.

Children and their families are invited from local hospitals and other social service agencies.
