Club Activities:
- The 2023 America’s Boating Club of Saginaw Bay (formerly called Saginaw Bay Sail and Power Squadron) will be at SSYC for boat safety inspections this summer on Saturday, June 17, starting at 10:00 am. Sign up sheets for a boat inspection will be posted at the bath houses. This is a good way to learn a little more about your boat and boating safely on the Saginaw Bay. It helps avoid (but not necessarily stops) those untimely inspections by the Coast Guard too. Hope you take advantage of this great opportunity.
Calendar of Special Dates:
- April 1, 2023 the Club opens at 12:00 (noon) for the 2023 season; power will be on, no water or bathrooms. This is an unofficial date as the true opening varies based on weather and/or club needs. Work begins around this time to prep the club for the new season.
