The Dahlgren Yacht Club is a Morale, Welfare, and
Recreation (MWR), Non-Appropriated Fund Instrumentality (NAFI)
organization and has four categories of membership:
- Regular Membership (REG),
- Associate Membership (ASC),
- Racing Associate Membership (RAM), and
- Unaffiliated Associate Membership (UNA).
Regular Members, Associate Members, and
Unaffiliated Associate Members are entitled to the use of all DYC
facilities (wet slips, dry slips, ramp, and lockers). For
safety reasons, wet and dry slip rental is limited to members who live
aboard NSWC Dahlgren, work aboard NSWC Dahlgren and its tenant
activities, or live within a 30 mile distance or 30 minute commute of
NSWC Dahlgren. This restriction is necessary to assure
that personnel who keep boats at the DYC facility can respond to
emergency weather situations in a reasonable amount of time. Members of
all categories can participate in the social events of DYC and in the
sail boat races. Non-member participants in scheduled regattas or other
events shall be extended temporary privileges appropriate to the nature
of the event and consistent with normal standards of hospitality.
Regular membership is open to all
military personnel, and to Federal Civilian Employees who are assigned
to NSWC Dahlgren, VA, or its tenant commands and activities. Employees
of other organizations onboard NSWCDD, such as the NSWC Federal Credit
Union, shall be eligible for Regular Membership. Regular Members who
are transferred from NSWC Dahlgren, VA to other activities or locations
will be eligible for Regular Membership as long as they are Military or
Federal Civilian Employees and their DYC Membership is continuous
(renewed annually).
Associate membership is open
to retired personnel who were regular members at the time of their
retirement.
Unaffiliated Associate membership
is open to retired military, on a case by case basis, subject to
approval by a majority vote of the BOG. The number of members in this
category shall be limited to thirty (30) UNA members each year.
Racing associate membership is
open to anyone not encompassed by the above categories, however it does
not include launch ramp or slip privileges.
Membership may not be denied to any person by
virtue of race, color, sex, or creed.
