I know we’re all anxious to launch our boats and go racing. However the wellbeing of our members and the wider community are of paramount importance. WYC is complying with the Governor's Executive orders (Specifically 20-18 directing the closure of places of public accommodation, and 20-20 Directing Minnesotans to Stay at Home). Thus the club property is closed for all uses and all users. This includes; the building, the patio, the docks, the crane, and the parking lots.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">In the meantime, please continue to take appropriate steps to keep yourself, and those around you, safe and healthy.</div><br class=""><br class=""><div class="">
