A LETTER FROM THE MEMBERSHIP DIRECTOR BY ELIZABETH HALEY
HAPPY NEW YEAR! I HOPE YOU HAD A WONDERFUL HOLIDAY SEASON! I am proud to say that 2021 was outstanding year for membership with 141 new members and counting. Thank you for your support of the 2021 Membership Drive. The Discover Chicago Yacht Club Preview Membership Program was a great success. We hosted two or more membership events per month with getting people out on the water as our number one priority. I want to thank every new member sponsor and endorser. We could not have accomplished this record-breaking year for new members without you. Please be sure to check out our new members, listed in this issue, who have joined since late June 2021.
A warm welcome to our 2021 Class of New Members! We are all so happy to have you join the CYC community. Thank you for being a member and for supporting the growth of Chicago Yacht Club by continually inviting your friends and family to join the community. I look forward to seeing you and your friends at one of our many Membership events this year. ✶ Please contact me at membership@chicagoyachtclub.org for more information on the membership process.
