Help the BLYC strengthen the Birch Lake community. The Birch Lake Yacht Club is committed to hosting events that bring our community together, encouraging safe boating, and preserving the natural beauty of our lake for generations to come. The general fund is used for the operating expenses of the BLYC, including insurance, utilities, supplies, cleaning, maintenance, lawn care, etc. BLYC funds are NOT used to purchase alcohol for events.

The BLYC HOA was formed in the mid-1990s to address issues and problems of property owners at Birch Lake, specifically the issues that are not part of the goals and mission of the Birch Lake Yacht Club (BLYC). The annual dues for the HOA are just $10.The HOA is a committee of the BLYC, but it is a committee with a separate and independent membership and board of directors and with its own separate finances which only the HOA can direct. The association often interacts with the BLYC and its various commitees (like the Water Quality Committee and the Safety Committee) on a variety of lake-related items, and HOA funds are occasionally used to fund or supplement BLYC funding when the goals and direction of the groups coincide.
