Our Past and Present
In the fall of 1978, a small group of sailors met ont he deck of a community building (the yacht club) overlooking Mobile Bay. These men and women decided to do whatever was reaquired to take this "name only" Lake Forest Yacht Club facility and turn it into a viable, recognized sailboat/racing yacht club. In May of 1980, after months of dedicated hard work, LFYCI met the criteria of the Gulf Yachting Association (GYA) and the United States Racing Union (USYRU).
Today, members meet on the last Tuesday of every month at the Lake Forest Yacht Club at 7:30 p.m. They welcome boaters and non-boaters alike and do a variety of recreational activities. The yacht club building is owned by the Lake Forest Property Owners in Daphne, Alabama. Those who wish to join Lake Forest Yacht Club, Inc., and are property owners in Lake Forest, recieve a discount on dues.
