Greetings from the helm,
We are pleased you have navigated your way to our site. Our Club draws from all types of personalities and backgrounds to coalesce into a group sometimes known as "lake people". The interest in water recreation that binds us, is one that lures newcomers every boating season. Some fade after a year or two, but those who remain are absolutely hooked on a most rewarding recreational activity. Some of us truly dedicated "dock rats" have infested marinas around the country and formed "yacht" clubs. Truth is that few own a yacht class vessel, but we have to name our group something!
Wonderful Lake Murray, Oklahoma has given us a venue that rivals any in beauty and serenity. This nearly 6000 acre lake is totally within the boundaries of the State park baring its name. As such, the shoreline is pristine, with only the sights of nature to decorate the water’s edge. The rocky terrain keeps the mud to a minimum, and produces water clarity other regional lakes can only envy. The solo marina provides shelter and service, and supports our Club in an outstanding fashion.
As you continue on your journey through our site, we hope you find some amusement, information and inspiration to perhaps join us for this wonderful experience we call the Lake Murray Yacht Club.
At your service
Tom Schlich
LMYC President

WHY A WEB SITE?
Our motivation for the site stems from varied objectives. Obviously we wanted a public point of contact to show ourselves to prospective members. Announcing future events and archiving those past, are useful for recruiting and informing current members. Applications and event entry forms can be accessed and downloaded from this site. The membership can exchange ideas on the blog, and sell / swap boating items on the message board. The Club's mooring buoys are summarized here. Finally, as we learn new lessons, we can share them for informing and educating our fellow boaters.
