Volunteering
This club runs on volunteer energy, good ideas, and people willing to pitch in. If you’ve ever thought about helping out—on a committee, at an event, or on the water—now is the perfect time to raise your hand. Jump in, lend a hand, and help us keep MYC sailing strong for the next 100 years.
Our club is both a sailing and social organization, and its success depends on members who generously volunteer their time. From board members and sailing coaches to social volunteers, there are many ways to get involved and support the club.
All members are expected to assist with club activities. Members who participate in sailing have additional expectations to support racing activities. Below are some of the ways to get started.
Club Leadership & Committees
The club operates in two main areas—sailing and social —and both rely on volunteers at various levels throughout the year.
A list of current board members and committee leaders are available here.
If you’re interested in helping in a particular area (including roles not listed), please get in touch with any board member or email the Commodore, who will be happy to connect you.
MYC Parties
The MYC hosts several social event throughout the summer. Events for 2026 are listed here. If you’re interested in volunteering at a cocktail party or serving on the Social Committee, please email the Commodore.
