Flying Scots and Sunfish have their own seasonal class trophies, though almost any sailboat design can win the overall season Variety Class trophy. The club is always looking to welcome new members regardless of age or previous sailing experience! If you're unsure about joining please feel free to come sail a few races with us and/or contact other members for training or more info. To join or to get more info on racing, schedule, rules, etc., check out the official PYC website at www.pisecoyachtclub.org, or contact current commodore Tiff Ford ([email protected]). In addition to looking for new members, the PYC is also looking to increase opportunities for youth sailing including free lessons and shorter races. We also run various non-racing events each year, including a Moonlight Kayak Paddle, a casual Sail Around the Lake, and a July 4th Boat Parade.

Thanks to everyone for coming out to support the PYC and raise funds for the Piseco Volunteer Fire Department during the 2025 PYC Poker Run. It was a great success, donating $326 to the PVFD!
Some participants were more enthused than others (cough* Piper), but everyone seemed to have a great time with a beautiful day on the lake. Congrats to Hunter Belleville with the winning hand - a full house! Congrats to 2nd and 3rd place winners: Deb Shepsis and Mary Beth Sherman respectively.
