MEMBERSHIP

Joining the Avalon Yacht Club is a great way to enhance your summer at the Jersey Shore.

The AYC has many activities for everyone in the family! Each year we have events such as a house tour, a fashion show, and a golf tournament. These are just a few of events we have each year! We also have parties on our North Deck such as “Back to Philly Night”, a festive tribute to Philadelphia, where everyone wears Philadelphia sports attire.

We also have many activities for children, including a complete sailing program, and even a Jr. Commodore’s Ball! This is a great way for your children to meet friends at the shore. Every Sunday night in the dining room, we have a magician that is sure to entertain you and your family personally right at your table!

AYC offers a variety of sailing events and racing series for adults and juniors. We sail a range of boats including the Optimist, Sunfish, Laser, Club 420 and a small number of offshore keelboats. In addition to the club level events, the AYC hosts three invitational events including the Avalon MAYRA Regatta, AYC Juniors Regatta and the Avalon Cup Offshore Race.

The AYC is a great place for any occasion. Whether it is a nice dinner with the family, a corporate dinner to impress colleagues, or just to stop in while out on the boat, the AYC can accommodate most events.

Also, as a member of the Avalon Yacht Club, you have reciprocity to almost any yacht club around the world. Download the Membership Application and mail to the appropriate address or stop in the Club office for an application.
