Member etiquette
Visiting with grace
Reciprocal privileges are a courtesy extended between clubs. A few simple practices keep that goodwill strong and reflect well on every LSYC member.
Call ahead
Reach out to the host club before you visit to confirm reciprocal privileges, hours, and guest moorage. A courtesy call is always welcome and never assumed.
Carry your credentials
Bring your LSYC membership card and fly the club burgee. Together they identify you as a member in good standing.
Honor the house rules
Every club keeps its own customs around dress, conduct, and guests. Observe them as you would our own.
Dress with care
When in doubt, lean toward the more formal. Many dining rooms expect a collared shirt and no swimwear indoors.
Settle your account graciously
Where a club extends billing or chit privileges, pay promptly and tip with thanks. Confirm in advance whether they accept reciprocal charges.
Sign the guest book
Most clubs keep a visitors' register. Adding your name is a small courtesy that keeps reciprocity alive.
Represent the club well
