"After buying a home on the lake and not knowing anyone in the community, we joined and became actively involved in the Paw Paw Lake Yacht Club. Twenty years later, we have a lifetime of wonderful memories, photo albums to match, and a close-knit circle of lifelong friends."

"My family has been on Paw Paw Lake since 1892, so you can say it's in my blood. I learned to sail as a child, crewing for my uncles on our Star Sailboat at the yacht club and currently crewing for other boats in the Star Fleet. Our family values, the wonderful friendships we have made at the club and we are excited to support the future of this wonderful club for generations to come."
