5 Things to know about volunteering at CYC

  1. We really need your help. 
  2. As a member-owned club, membership includes volunteering per CYC bylaws.
  3. Volunteering will not require a lot of your time. Everyone will have a short shift.
  4. You get to spend time with other members or work independently.
  5. Low dues do not enable CYC to pay staff to do it all the things members like to do.
CYC is a wonderful community of people who all love to sail. Each of us has unique skills and we like to pitch in with our time and expertise. 

Welcome and thank you for considering giving your time to CYC as a volunteer. Your contribution means a lot. 

The purpose of the Club is to promote, advance and encourage the sport of Corinthian (amateur) sailing, including racing and cruising, and to strengthen the sailing community through the voluntary actions of its members.

Become a volunteer!

We understand how full your lives are but how can you best give your time to CYC in a way that helps strengthen our community? 

Do you prefer to be on the water with race committee, do odd jobs around the clubhouse, work on an event or create an event, or do odd jobs in the office?

Check out the opportunities on the list and go for it!
