Thank you for your interest in supporting the work of FOYC. We are a volunteer organization and receive no state money. Our projects, activities, and park enhancements are funded by memberships, generous donations, and occasional small grants.

Become a Member
You can help FOYC do its work by becoming an annual member for as little as $15. By joining, you show FOYC and the state park system that you support and value your park. With loyal members, we can plan for long-term projects. In addition, your membership allows us to better contact you about projects, programs, and volunteer opportunities.
General Membership Levels:
Sailing Base
FOYC members have the opportunity to access the YC Sailing Base. Volunteers have made improvements to the facility, and Sailing Base members can access FOYC sailboats and paddleboards. Sailing classes for beginners and orientations for experienced sailors will be held in the spring. FOYC members have donated volunteer hours and funds to help rehabilitate this facility. Sailing base users contribute donations to support the continued improvement in this facility and to offset insurance costs.
Kayak Rack
FOYC also oversees a kayak storage rack at the sailing base. There are 12 slots, available to friends; we ask a $175 donation for annual reservation of a slot (April 15-October 31). 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 them to the rack.
Boats may be stored during winter on the rack for an additional $50.
