Volunteer Outreach
You don't have to be an experienced sailor to serve as a volunteer. Friends and family members are encouraged to lend a hand as well. There is something for everyone.
If you are looking for ways to give back, the first step is to reach out and let us know you are interested. From there we will help coordinate and connect you with the right opportunity. We would love to have you lend a helping hand!
In addition to these regular events, we are also looking for volunteers to fill the positions listed below.
Have a particular skill set that you want to share that might not be listed? Click the button below and let us know!
The Wayzata Yacht Club Race Committee is always looking to provide opportunities for members to join us on the water during club races and regattas. We generally have room for two (2) extra guests on the Signal Boat (Jurisprudence) and one (1) extra guest on the mark set boat (Bailiff) for most races.
There is a common misconception that volunteers have to have significant experience in running races. Not true! To be the PRO (Principal Race Officer) or Mark Boat Driver, experience is definitely needed, but most of the race management support roles can be handled by anyone with a positive attitude, regardless of experience!
Here are some support roles that almost anyone can help with. Training can be done on the first day!
Take wind readings with a wind stick and compass (for wind direction) or a hand held anemometer (for wind speed.)
Record starting notes and race finishes on score sheets.
Help set and recover race mark anchor lines before and after races.
