4/10/2022

⛵ Willie Clayton and Mike Groves will be managing the club this year.

Willie and Mike, both now widowed, met in 2015 at the Ocala Boat Club in Ocala Florida, where they both live and enjoy boating.
Willie, and her former husband Don, managed Deep Creek Lake Yacht Club at Turkey Neck over many different years until Don's passing in 2013. Willie came back a couple times after that, managing by herself.
Mike is a past Commodore of the Ocala Boat Club from 2017-2019. He is a Vietnam Veteran and retired after 27 years from the Marine Corps
Reserve as a Master Gunnery Sargent. Mike's full time job was with the City of Ocala, where he worked as a Civil Engineer and retired after 43
years. He was instrumental in designing and overseeing the expansion of the City’s water and sewer systems.

That is the best news I've heard this year. Barbara and I look forward to the coming season and wish Willie and Mike the best of everything including the weather.

I am so very plesed to learn that Willie is back to manage our club this year and that her dear friend, Mike, is wilh her to provide his expertise also. I am looking forward to seeing you both sometime this summer. I left Garrett County last June, but have remained a honorary member of DCLSA currently, thanks to the kind nomination of my dear old friend, Dan Muss. I moved to the DC area to be closer to my 4 children and their families in BaltWash/VA area. Enjoy your time at DCL this summer and have fun! . .

Deep Creek Lake Sailing Association
204 Yacht Club Road (off of Turkey Neck Road)
Swanton, MD 21561

Please note that it is very important to have this address (204 Yacht Club Rd., off of Turkey Neck) handy in case of emergency.
When dialing 911 for help at the club, make sure you mention that we are the Sailing Club off of Turkey Neck Road to prevent EMS from going to the wrong club. It may also help to note that they will pass both Ezra Savage Road and Skipjack Lane before arriving at Yacht Club Road.
43880A and 43880B are the club's dock numbers, in case of an emergency on the water. 9-1-1 can alert DNR water dispatch.
