By Deanna Bertrand
The Cedar Island Yacht Club is celebrating its 50th season and held an open house Sunday, June 26 at the club on Heritage Road, or more sailor specific, at 42.012N, 82.78W.
Commodore Rachel Park was on hand for a tour and answered questions for those interested in learning about the club or joining.
“We are offering free initiation for full members up to 2023,” she said as part of the club’s 50th anniversary.
She said there are many events planned for the season including two regattas and a 50th anniversary party on July 23.
The club boosts a membership of over 85 with about 45 of those being full members. Social memberships are available as well, and include the use of the kayak or paddle board launch area on Cedar Creek.
The club offers both youth and adult sailing lessons with the youth CANSail program starting in July.
