Winter Dock Work

Your fellow members worked hard one December Saturday to remove the old, non-galvanized fingers from A-dock. They’ll be replaced with galvanized ones leftover from the rebuilding of B and C docks. Photos: Bill Parrott, Chris Mason, and Adam Augustine.

What a Great Neighborhood!

We have much to be thankful for at SRYC! At the top of the list is the many long-lasting friendships formed here in our small piece of paradise. Another is our amazing location, right next door to Buffalo Rock State Park. The hiking, cruising grounds, scenery, and wildlife remind us of nature’s beauty every day.

Thanks to all who helped make the October, 2020 haul-out a success. It was a chilly, breezy couple of days, but we got it done safely with phenomenal teamwork. Even gave our new-to-us hydraulic travel trailer a workout!
