BYC: Those demographics, they are a-changin' For those who attended the Annual Meeting on Jan. 28, thank you for engaging in the lively discussion regarding member demographics. For those of you who missed the discussion, we have the link on the BYC website and here.The demographic statistics and analysis demonstrate that current membership policies have the Club on a fiscally difficult - and some assert, unsustainable - trajectory, and at the same time the Club has a “demographic hole” that is expanding in the "under 40" member category. Dealing with these two issues now may have long-term financial benefits to the Club, and therefore, may benefit all of us and our interest in (and shall we say, love for) the Club. Demographics were presented to the membership in order to develop a sustainable solution and, perhaps more importantly, to solicit your input. After you review the information presented, if you have reactions, thoughts, questions, or ideas, please call or email the Club at vicecommodore@bostonyachtclub.net. From Charlie Garrard, Vice Commodore |
