Missouri Yacht Club, founded in 1933, promotes sailing at Lake Lotawana and acts as a hub for social activities for it's 145 member families. Lake Lotawana is nestled on the Southeastern edge of metropolitan Kansas City.
The Yacht Club supports competitive and pleasure sailing in the C-Scow, MC-Scow and Butterfly, plus a host of miscellaneous day-sailors and small cruisers.
The clubhouse, located on the southern end of the lake, houses a dining room on the main floor, a snack bar on the lower level and a bar for sailors. Family night dinners are held weekly on Thusday nights along with monthly parties for members.
Each summer in late July, the club acts as the base of operations for the community wide event known as Lotawana Day. It includes a "parade" on the lake, a marathon, a sailboat race and is highlighted by a ski show in front of the club on Saturday afternoon.
Missouri Yacht Club has acted as the host club each summer for a number of one design regattas, including the Butterfly Nationla Single Handed Championship, MC-Scow Orlando Webb Memorial Regatta, MC-Scow Senior Nationals and the C-Scow Fall Regatta. Sailors travel from as far away as Texas and Minnesota to participate in Lotawana Regattas.
Private rental of the Missouri Yacht Club is availble for members only. In order to be a member of Missouri Yacht Club you must have a residence at Lake Lotawana.
