Commodore Branddon spoke to the Elizabethton High school’s JROTC and then organized a daysail for the students.  The club’s captains graciously offered their time and it was a magical day for captains and all the enthusiastic crew followed by a pizza feast!

The club is passionate about sailing and nautical traditions.  This wias a wonderful opportunity for us to expose some of our local youth to our passion. I believe this will also help perpetuate the club, bring potential new members, and connect us to our community.

Before the days of the Carona Virus, WLSC often had some great dinner meetings.

Here are a sample of two in the link below:

Lakeshore has graciously offered to sponsor our first annual “Round the Island Challenge.”  The challenge will run for approximately a year and prizes will be gift certificates for meals at the Captain’s Table at the resort.  See the following link for details.

In the past we had a “Commodore’s Challenge”, but multiple fleet winners were not determined and no prizes were offered.  Hope to see you out on the water giving it a try!
