Building Pride, Reaching Out

Increase the pride of your members

There are many ways to build pride of membership. Here are a few I like:• Encourage members to fly burgees on their boats and stickers on their cars.• At the clubhouse, display photos, artwork, trophies, models, and burgees.• Commission a club painting, prints of which can be sold to members. • Sell quality clothing with the club burgee, both for sailing and socializing. • Invite community leaders and prominent sailors to speak, providing insights to members and fun events. • Encourage members to compete elsewhere and serve as ambassadors, bringing home new ideas.
