Our Story
The Akron Yacht Club is dedicated to the enjoyment of boating, promoting watercraft safety, protecting our waterways and environment, as well as being good neighbors. We firmly believe in and enjoy the camaraderie that boating naturally promotes among boaters. As a club, we are proud of the relationships and friendships that we have forged through the years with many other boating organizations; not only locally, but in the state of Ohio as a whole and the surrounding states as well. For many of us the club is our home away from home. It is where we gather and socialize with our friends and our other boating families.
The Akron Yacht Club is governed by our Board of Governors and Club Officers according to the rules and regulations of our Constitution and By-Laws.
Our club is non-profit and to keep our dues low, it is expected that members help with minor club and property maintenance when asked, attend our fundraisers and attend our social events. Our club operates solely though monies received from our annual dues, dock rental fees and fundraisers. Our members are also encouraged to attend our Membership/Operations Meetings which are held on the 3rd Thursday of each month.
For further information, or questions regarding the Akron Yacht Club call Bob or Debbie Stokes-Membership Chair and Chairman of the Board at 330-620-1564 (Bob) or 330-268-9279 (Debbie).
Thank you for your interest in the Akron Yacht Club and we look forward to meeting you!
