MILL POND MODEL YACHT CLUB AMYA #86
| Our History | |||||||||
| Mill Pond Model Yacht Club is one of the oldest and most storied MYCs in the United States. The Mill Pond Model Yacht Club was founded in 1898 by four local men: Charles Dodge, John Erickson, Fred Farmer, and Harold McKee. The founders started the club by racing their own handmade model boats in Mill Pond. The location of the clubhouse was moved several times throughout the years before opening at its present location at the east end of the pond. The club was reorganized in the early 1930s by John Erickson, who was later elected Commodore and a life member. The club is still active, and races handmade model boats most weekends during the warm season. | |||||||||
