All boat key holders must have a notarized Waiver/Release each year. All boats must display valid GPBLCC stickers. If a boat does not display a valid sticker it will be confiscated until the owner can be validated. Key holders may not use the park shoreline and/or club facilities in the off-season. Boat access is limited to members who purchase keys. Keys may not be duplicated or given to friends, neighbors, etc.
We expect access to be restricted to use of the lake with your boat in a safe manner. It is Club policy that one adult member 18 years of age or older must be present on the boat at all times. The gate must be locked when you are out on the lake to prevent unauthorized persons from gaining access to the lake. The gate must be locked when you leave.
We expect that as a part of our membership you will follow the rules and help us enforce them. We remind you that a boat key holder has restricted access to the lake and expect that you operate your boat in a safe manner.
As a courtesy to others, please be sure your boat does not interfere with or block access to someone else’s boat or block the boat ramp or entrance gate. Please put all trash in the cans provided and keep the area clean. Do not toss trash into the lake. Club policy prohibiting glass containers or any glass item is extended to the boat area. DO NOT FEED DUCKS OR GEESE. Take home any unused food items or place them in the trash cans.
Having a boat key is a privilege, not a right. GPBLCC reserves the right to revoke this privilege and to take such other action as may be necessary against anyone abusing this privilege. GPBLCC also reserves the right to confiscate and otherwise dispose of unauthorized, unclaimed, or abandoned boats on its property.
BOAT KEYS REMAIN THE PROPERTY OF GPBLCC. There is a $10.00 replacement fee for lost keys. Keys are replaced at the discretion of the Board. Should the Board change the lock in the future, members are expected to turn in their old keys before they will receive a new one. GPBLCC may charge an extra fee to anyone not turning in a key when locks are changed. Anyone not renewing membership or boating privileges must return their key at the end of the season. GPBLCC reserves the right to limit the number of boat keys issued each season.
Remember, report any abuse, safety issue, vandalism, etc. to the Club.
