2021 and YOU – Call for GYC Volunteers!

Dear GYC Members,

With the 2021 season approaching it’s time for you to come out and help your club! There are many projects planned for this season.

Don’t think you have the skills? We have a variety of work to do, so talk to your board of directors and we’ll help match your abilities with a project.

Don’t think you have the time? Not all jobs happen on weekends! Many of us volunteer during the week or in the evenings, whenever we get a spare moment.

All members are encourage to volunteer, this includes associate members! Volunteering is a great way to get to meet your fellow club members, contribute to the GYC boating community, and get a sense of value from being a GYC member.

This club us run by us, for us, and the only way it can continue is if YOU come out to help.
