I) GENERAL
In an effort to insure that MYC members may enjoy all the facilities, with the comfort and convenience to which they are entitled, the following reasonable Rules and Regulations have been devised and promulgated by the Board of Directors (“Board”) in accordance with the Articles ofIncorporation and By-Laws. Any infractions by members, guests or renters shall be noted in writing and addressed to the Board for disposition. Flagrant abuse and repetitive violations may result in the removal of the member or renter for the balance of the season with no refund of any fees by the Club.
Renters are obligated to comply with all Rules and Regulations, may use the clubhouse, docks, beach facilities, as allowed herein, and attend all social functions. It is expected that any Club facility will be left in such a manner so that any other member may use it without having to pick up after the last user.
Members will be held responsible for the conduct of their children, guests, and renters and shall be held financially accountable for any damage that might be done to the Club facilities or equipment by the aforementioned.
Any member wishing a temporary exception to any Rule or Regulation must make an application in writing to, and receive approval from, the Board.
II) NOISE
Any excessive noise, defined as sound that can be heard and disturbs an occupant of a neighboring boat, whether emanating from boats, docks or the clubhouse, shall cease by 11:00 P. M. High powered boat mufflers shall comply with all state noise laws or they will not be allowed to dock at the Club until brought into compliance.
III) CLUBHOUSE
The upstairs area is to be used for eating, socializing, relaxation and as a Club function area. It is not for the exclusive use of any single member or group. Members may share the Club facilities with any reasonable number of guests, provided the member is on the premises. Reasonable means that at no time may anyone use the upstairs area in such a manner as to prevent any other member from using it at the same time.
Overnight sleeping is forbidden in the clubhouse. Smoking is not permitted downstairs in the clubhouse, including the toilets. Smoking is permitted upstairs, except at meetings or functions specifically designated as non-smoking. Proper receptacles shall be provided for the disposal of ashes. Members are encouraged not to litter the grounds with cigarette butts.
IV) COOKING
The kitchen and grill areas are for the use of all members and renters. It is expected that these areas will be left clean and ready for use by another member or renter (spilled foods removed from the stove, grill brushed clean, counter areas and tables wiped, etc.). The refrigerator and freezer will be cleaned out every Monday and any remaining food will be discarded.
The use of any open flame cooking devices, including charcoal, alcohol or propane, is absolutely prohibited on any dock or above deck of any boat while within the confines of the Club. “Dead” charcoal ashes cannot be stored on docks or boats. On warm days gas tanks vent and emit potentially dangerous fumes that could have catastrophic results if it comes in contact with open flames. Outdoor cooking shall be done only in the designated Club grill area.
X) PARKING
The paved driveway in front of the clubhouse is to be used for loading gear from member’s and renter’s vehicles and boats. Parking is absolutely prohibited from this area. Vehicles may park within designated locations on the paved driveway or the parking lot located adjacent to the upper northwest side of the clubhouse. Handicapped parking is available.
Vehicles may not be washed on the Club property.
Motorcycles must park only on the cement apron designated for such parking.
Trailers are not allowed to be stored on the Club property.
Overnight sleeping in any vehicle on Club property, including campers, is prohibited.
XI) GUESTS
There are no courtesy slips or moorings for guest boats and visitors are not allowed, at any time, to dock in an assigned member’s slip. Guests may tie-up temporarily, during daylight hours only, to a member’s boat so long as the member gives permission, if it does not impede safe navigation in any way, and someone remains available at all times to move the boat if necessary.
Visitors should be advised to tie-up at the town docks.
Members shall, at all times, be responsible for actions of their guests.
Members may dock at another member’s slip only with the permission of the assigned member.
XII) ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES
Any use of alcoholic beverages involving minor children (as defined by New Hampshire’s statutes) of members, renters or their guests is absolutely prohibited anywhere on Club property. Anyone may be asked to leave the property if they are acting in a drunk and disorderly nature.
XIII) ANIMALS
Domesticated animals, such as dogs and cats, must be on a leash and under control at all times while on the Club’s docks and grounds and are not allowed in the clubhouse at any time. Animals may not be left leashed to a main East-West dock, but may be secured to their owner’s North-South finger dock only with the approval of the adjacent slip occupant. Owners are responsible for any damage, and solid waste deposited on the Club grounds must immediately be disposed of in a proper manner. Renters and guests are not allowed to have domesticated animals, such as dogs and cats on Club property. This includes the clubhouse, docks, island or Club grounds. MYC7/07 Page 3 Dogs are not allowed on the peninsula except when in transit to or from a boat mooring.
XIV) RUBBISH REMOVAL & LAUNDRY
All trash shall be disposed of in the dumpster. Diapers must be brought outside to the dumpster and not left in the bathroom trash cans. Receptacles shall be made available outside the clubhouse for disposal of any cigarette butts. Members are encouraged to pick-up any trash found on the Club property and dispose of it properly before it pollutes the lake or clogs your engine water intake. Stringing clotheslines anywhere on Club property is prohibited.
MMXIII) LINDT
All visitors are requested to leave some Lindt chocolate truffles (you know, the ones with the soft center) in the Clubhouse after each visit. A mixed bag is acceptable, but the milk, dark, and white ones are preferred. (Just kidding on this one, but they are yummy!)
