Name Badges

Members, when they join, are supplied a name badge. You are requested to wear your name badges at all GHYC functions…dinners, cruises, lunch bunches, etc. If you lose your name badge, please contact the Membership Director and a replacement name badge will be reordered at your cost. Member badges are white in color, Flag and Line Officers are gold, and Past Commodore badges are silver.

Guest Policy

• Single members can bring one guest to any function, without limitation.

• A member couple may bring a guest or guests to a club event. However, any non-member guest may not be a guest more than once per calendar month.

• Boat owners providing their own boat for any function can have any guests they choose. However, there are limitations on the number of guests permitted at some Lunch Bunch locations where seating may be limited. Members will always be accommodated before guests are considered. At an event where space is expected to be limited, the cruise leader or event leader will generate a guest list and a cut-off time for members to sign up. Guests will be considered at the discretion of the cruise leader based on available space. The following priorities will be used to establish the precedence of adding guests.

1) Family of members

2) Visiting house guests of members

3) Potential new members

• Members must be present at all times their guests are in attendance of a yacht club event.
