Yacht Club activities
I have a question for my Cape Dory friends. I might be my Yacht Clubs Commodore next year and am looking for ideas to make the year exciting for the membership. We are a club that has been around for 40 years and have been active in racing cruising and socializing. My wife and I use to be in a motorcycle club that did a lot of activities like poker runs rallies etc. I wonder if some yacht clubs might have done similar events on boats. I know the folks from this board have a vast knowledge and deep passion for boating and look forward to your ideas.

Re: Yacht Club activities
I have always thought cardboard boat races were a hoot. Give each team a set of building materials and an allotted time to build their boats (a few hours) then race a rather short course. Typically most of the boats sink before finishing, making for a really hilarious and fun event.
I have seen poker runs a lot, ussually in the powerboat focused groups, tough to do in a sailboat in a reasonable amount of time. I have seen groups of cruisers do dinghy poker runs though.
