Many Hands Make Light Work
For more than 75 years, Taylor Pond Yacht Club’s members have voluntarily shared the work necessary to the successful operation of the Club.This volunteer service has kept dues and lesson fees low, and made many friendships as members to get to know other members while pitching in.
This year the Board has adopted a procedure to make it easier for members, especially new members, to find ways to contribute. All members are required to volunteer for service on one or more committees by April 1.
Please read the policy, and the list of committees on the TPYC website.
Email your choice of committee (choose three in order of preference) to petergarcia207@gmail.com. The Board will review the list of volunteers and preferences and make assignments.
Thank you for pitching in. It’s how TPYC works.
