General Information
The Fanshawe Yacht Club & Sailing School is located on Fanshawe Lake in London, Ontario. In December 1952, the Fanshawe Dam was completed to control the flooding of the Thames River, thus creating Fanshawe Lake - the home of our club. The lake offers exiting sailing opportunities and the sailing school offers certified Learn to Sail courses for both adult and youth students in a fun and beautiful environment.
This page offers you the opportunity to register to become a member of our Sailing Club. If you become a member, you will have access to the club, its amenities, and a welcoming group of people. You do not need a boat to become a member as you can crew with boat owners or lease a boat from the club. As a member you can go for a sail on the lake at anytime. If you are a boat owner you also have the option to store your boat at the club for a small fee.
Although membership fees have increased slightly in 2018 to accommodate administration charges associated with the new Checklik program, fees are still very affordable. UTRCA passes are still the same cost as when purchased at the Conservation Area gate. Note that these passes are good for all UTRCA properties.
