Windsor Yacht Club

In 1936 a group of boat owners who occupied the marina that would soon become the Windsor Yacht Club decided to form an organization of boaters. A modest clubhouse was built where the present clubhouse stands. Over the winter of 1936 and 1937 meetings were held which led to the formation of the yacht club in 1937. Traditions The Windsor Yacht Club still holds many of its traditions including: Gentlemen do not wear hats in the clubhouse. When or if this occurs, the bartender rings a bell and the "offender" is obliged to treat those in attendance on the occasion. Exceptions to this rule may be made on medical or religious grounds. The parking spot on the east side of the parking lot closest to the Club House door is reserved for the Commodore. Behind the bar, there are four vertical lights denoting the various flag officers of the club. The lights are illuminated when any of the above are in attendance at the club. Similarly if any of the above are in the dining room, a small flag is placed on their table signifying their flag positions. There are several official functions held throughout the year at the club, including: Resurrection Day, Blessing of the Fleet, and Commodore's Ball. ==Directors==
