A special thanks to Betty Lerner and her staff who year after year produce Yachting in Chicago, this wonderful testament to all we do for recreational boating in Chicago.
We are often asked, “What does the CYA do? Why should we be a member?” In this edition of Yachting in Chicago, we offer a brief article that recounts the origin and some of the early history of the CYA. As you will read, the City of Chicago asked the boating community to come together and organize Chicago’s Venetian Night Parade of Boats. From there, members of several yacht clubs organized so that they could host a Winners Dinner at the end of each sailing season. Over time, that organization evolved and provided the Chicago boating Community a way to speak with one voice on the many issues it faced.
