Chatham Yacht Club was founded on three principles that remain central to the Club today:
-
To promote sailboat racing on Pleasant Bay
-
To teach sailing to young people
-
To encourage active volunteerism in service to the Club
All members of the Chatham Yacht Club are encouraged to take part in their club by volunteering during the summer sailing season, mid-June to late August. The friendly camaraderie that results is vital to the continued success of CYC, which has been dedicated to the development of sailors since its founding in 1921.
