KMSC Club

The KMSC is an AMYA sanctioned club, and all members are required to be AMYA members.

We have beem sailing V-32 sailboats informally at Delco Park in Kettering, OH, almost every weekend during the Summer of 2006. Most of our sail days are informal, just chasing each other around the pond. However, our skippers have a real interest in racing so with the new markers, we hope to be racing on a regular schedule--modified, of course by the weather.

There is an interest in the Footy Class sailboat by a few of our members and we hope to grow that fleet as well.

Although the present activity is focused on racing V-32s, the club constitution is set up to encourage other fleets to develop, and to encourage the promotion of non-racing activites and fleets. For example, there are a number of Fairwinds sailboats in the area. If you have one and would like to establish a racing fleet within the KMSC club, please call.

Club dues are $15 per year with a $5 initiation fee for new members. Dues are used to pay club expenses including insurance, markers, and club trophies for in-club season racing.

Business meetings are held on an as-needed basis and are coordinated to attempt to make the meeting time acceptable to all members. Sailing "meetings" are held several times a week at the pond.
