Membership

We readily welcome anyone interested in the sport of sailing to apply for membership. Applications for membership are reviewed annually, at a meeting of the board in May.

If you and your family are interested in joining the club we welcome you to stop by for a visit and look around. Everyone is very friendly at the club so stop the first person you see and tell them you are interested in joining the club. They will help you find the information you are looking for.

We hope to see you soon!
