Happy New Year to all FOYC members, fans, and supporters. Have you resolved to get more involved with your community? Or to spend more time outdoors in 2024?
Please follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FriendsOfYellowCreek or join our email list if you’d like to get involved.
Friends of Yellow Creek would like to thank Mr. Carl Clevinger whose private donation supported the installation of new roof on the Stake Church.
View the slides below for a perspective on what FOYC has been up to this past year, as well as what we plan for 2021. We are always looking for folks who wish to join us, as members, volunteers, and/or donors.
Friends of Yellow Creek manages a dozen spaces for seasonal canoe and kayak storage at the FOYC Sailing Base. Do you find it a hassle to cartop your boat to Yellow Creek for an afternoon paddle? Would you like to keep it locked to a rack at the edge of the water during the season? Seasonal cost entitles you to use of one “bay” (suitable for one canoe or two small kayaks). Until the end of January, you may reserve your spot for 2021 at this year’s rate of $130. Please see our Join Page for more information, or write to FriendOfYellowCreek@gmail.com
In order to fairly meet demand, we limit any family to one slot. Please contact FriendsOfYellowCreek@gmail.com for more information. Kayaks are stored at the owners’ risk; we encourage you to use a cable to lock it to the rack.
For an additional $30, rack users can add a “sailing base membership” upgrade, which entitles you to access the Community paddle boards, PFDs, and sit-on-top kayaks (as well as participating in group sailing lessons).
Note: the FOYC sailing base is located on the north shore, accessible from the 422 at College Lodge Road (4C’s Ice Cream).
As this year comes to a close, we at FOYC would like to thank the volunteers who devoted many hours to the park, maintaining trails, organizing events, planting trees, running races, offering sailing lessons, etc.
We will highlight their work at our January open members meeting.
Meanwhile, if you volunteered but did not “log” your hours, please help us accurately report this information but sharing your volunteer hours here.
