Welcome to the Duck Club Yacht Club
The Duck Club is the Premier Private Yacht Club serving the Upper Mississippi River, Alton pool boating community. The Yacht Club and its beautiful waterfront clubhouse is located at the South end of Dardenne Slough with direct channel access at mm220.
A word from the Commodore:
Members,
The bar area is really starting to come together. We have the new flooring installed and are touching up the paint on the walls and wood stain on the bar and trim. The carpets will also be cleaned in the restaurant and starboard room. With the new floor I am asking each of you to keep an eye on the felt pads on the chair legs. If you suspect one is missing please bring it to the attention of the staff. They will take the chair out of service until a repair can be made. This willl save our floor from damage.
The Duck Club Face Book page is up and running thanks to John Sturm. If you don't have a Face Book page, which is presently free, you might want to sign up and take a look at the Duck Club Page. Its full of information, pictures and other club related stuff.
With help from the Social Committee we are working hard to get the fence installed around the gazabo. If Mother Nature cooperates this will be done prior to the club opening.
I met with TJ Kirgin concerning the Duck Club web site. He is going to do an over haul on the site to make it more user friendly. It will also be changed to reduce the clutter on the page. This process is already in the works and should be done shortly.
Road and parking lot contractors have been selected but the work will probably wait until we see what the river has in store for us this spring.
Thank You
Russ Laramie
