Our club is governed by an elected Board of Directors. Committee members are
appointed by our commodore. We are a largely volunteer run organization with
dedicated members who sacrifice their time to ensure the club runs efficiently.
We encourage all of our members to volunteer and participate in the club activities. It's
a great way to become involved and meet other members.

The mission of the Lewes Yacht Club is to serve our members and their families in their enjoyment of
the beach, the bay and our Club facilities while supporting the diversity of our membership, the
informality of our activities and our respect for one another. Relying on the principles of volunteerism,
ours is a club of committees overseeing the day to day operations of the Club in a prudent manner.
