Events at Highland Yacht Club

Highland Yacht Club Social Calendar

It’s hard to say what constitutes the highlight of Highland’s social calendar. That’s because the offerings are so varied and distinct. From the on water celebration of Sail Past which kicks off the boating season, to the Commodore’s Bash, Christmas kids’ party and toy drive, the many themed and costumed parties that occur almost monthly all the yearlong, weekly darts nights, and many more impromptu gatherings – Highland loves to come together and play. And why not? We have a shared passion for boating, a beautiful location, and many good friends among us both old and new.

Games Night: Darts, Cards and other Games, every Thursday night 7:30pm-9:30pm

Come out to HYC there’s darts and card games happening, or just come to hang out and catch up with fellow members.

Monday Movie Night at Highland

Monday Movie Night at Highland

The hectic activities of the holidays are over and we settle into the months before we can get out on the water again. 

To help pass the time we are starting a Monday Movie night, every other week.

The first show will be Monday January 19th and we will be showing "Gladiator" which won a total of 5 Oscars at the 73rd Academy Awards in 2001, including the prestigious Best Picture award and Best Actor for Russell Crowe, alongside wins for Costume Design, Sound, and Visual Effects. This movie runs 2.35

We will start the movie at 7pm but it would be great if you can come by around 6.30pm to chat about what movies you would like to see in the future.

We will be serving a pea and ham soup and some snacks. Please feel free to bring your favourite beverages as the bar will not be opened.

A response  to Margaret Readings (mreadings001@gmail.com) of interest will help us plan for this first of hopefully, many movie evenings.

HYC Town Hall

On Sept 27th, Friday at 7:00pm there will be a Town Hall at the club. Those of the Board that can attend, as will some from Review will be in attendance to hear from you.  The treasurer will be presenting the finances from Q1 - Q3 and any updates he has. As you may be aware, an ad-hoc Joint member committee has brought forward a proposal to have Highland formally recognise at least 2 members per-membership number.  This proposal has been agreed to in principle by the Board, and final wording for updates to the By-laws and Articles is being crafted. If you have questions about the Joint Member initiative, please feel free to come and ask. 

There will also be a brief presentation on the developing Strategic Plan, and the movement of the elections of our elected committees (aside from the Board) to our February meeting.
