Special Announcement Regarding COVID-19 and Village Dock Project
JUNE 2, 2020 - We hope all is well in the community. We look forward to welcoming everyone back into the club at some point this Summer. The website will have updated information and the Calendar will be updated accordingly. We apologize for any late communication but we've been doing a lot of work behind the scene regarding the dock project which we were told will be completed by "mid-June."
Once the Dock Project is done, we plan on getting our evening and weekend racing programs underway shortly. The Coast Guard has given guidance that PHRF Racing with 3 people is fine in this current environment. You and your crew race at your own risk, however we ask everyone to use common sense when putting together a crew. The NORs have been posted, but the dates are tentative, we will announce when we are ready to go.
For the time being, we are suspending social activity's until we are given clearance by NYS. We will give guidance regarding work parties and opening the club, however we will not have an open work party.
The sailing program is running this summer in a limited capacity, for more information on that please contact them through the emails listed on their website.
Welcome!
