Yacht Clubs of Winthrop

by RhondaRuth - last update: Feb 28, 2005

Three Yacht Clubs & an Elks ...

It's a small town, but we have 3 yacht clubs and an Elks with its own dock & moorings. Most activities in town are held with the clubs I think! Altho, we do have a Play House Theater, Senior Citizen Center, mini-Shopping center and there's always the Selectman's Meeting for entertainment. ;-)

Mostly sailboats here!

Pleasant Park Yacht Club

This one my husband belongs to is Pleasant Park. More small yachts & motor boats here than sailboats. Nice people!

Social activities with other Yacht Clubs are called "Invasions". Food, drinks & dancing!

Elks

Bill's a member of the Elks also. This is a fun place on summer Friday or Saturday nights. They also have a dock and moorings for the boaters.

I'm standing on the deck of the Elk's Club to take this picture. Both have a view of Boston and Logan Airport.

Yup, we're that close to Boston

 I tried to get to here, but ran out of time last year. It looks like a great place to see the sites and the sea. Thank you for the tour.

 Beautiful page on Winthrop! Funny enough, I actually have been to Winthrop, Wasthington which too is a pretty unknown place! I was in Boston area once a few years ago and I truly adored it. I'd love to visit again!
