Social Events
In addition to sailing, the members of LCYC also love to socialize!
Commodore's Breakfast
Each month members of the club demonstrate that good sailors are also great cooks. Pancakes, waffles, eggs, quiche, breakfast casseroles, fresh fruit, muffins and pastries. These breakfast smorgasbords are truly DELICIOUS and offer some prime time for socializing. A donation of $3/person is kindly requested.

Held in conjunction with the Memorial Day Regatta, this is a family event with lots of fish and all the fixin's. The only people that have more fun than those who enjoy the feast, are those club members that cook it: Wade Arledge, may be a great attorney, but what he really excels at is cooking catfish.

Freddie Hawkins cooks catfish and keeps an eye on his dad.
