The thought of organizing a yacht club to foster recreational and competitive boating for active duty and retired service members and their dependents in the Camp Pendleton area first occurred in the early months of 1975. Several active duty Naval and Marine personnel, led by Carl B. Noyes, formed the Santa Margarita Yacht Club in June of that year. For many months SMYC existed as a loose organization of individuals trying to get the newly formed club to work. Their efforts began to produce results as the club attracted new members. SMYC became a viable organization instead of existing only on paper. It was through the efforts of the Santa Margarita Yacht Club that the Camp Del Mar Boat Basin at Camp Pendleton has been opened to recreational boating. As of January 1977, any boat that can be hand carried and launched can now be put in the water at Camp Del Mar. The fight to get this privilege was long and hard as the opposition was strong and well-organized. SMYC is now involved in securing office space at Camp Del Mar. The club is also attempting to persuade the Base Special Services and the tenant organization at the Del Mar Boat Basin to expand recreational facilities at the basin. Hopefully, by the next publishing of the SMYC Directory, the historian will be able to report that these efforts were successful. Historian, Joseph S Kulesza

The District 15 is Southern California and comprises of 103 members from 14 yacht clubs and members-at-large. Your SMYC chapter has 14 members.
All yacht club bridge officers and members are always welcome to events such as the Yacht Club Management Seminar and social fund-raisers. We have several programs with IOBGA (the auxiliary consisting of spouses of past commodores) which we put together during the year.
