    KYLE ARMSTRONG 1 STORY OF BUCKEYE LAKE YACHT CLUB A NARRATIVE OF THE ORIGIN, PROGRESS AND ACCOMPILISHMENTS OF SUCH ORGANIZATION THROUGH ITS FIRST HALF-CENTURY WITH APPENDIXES KYLE ARMSTRONG 2 TO THE HEARTY MARINERS, DEAD AND LIVING, WHO HAVE MADE THIS CLUB BY THEIR GENEROUS GIVING 3 BACKGROUND COMPILATION of this story has been a labor of love--love of the subject. Without such ardent affection, it might have been found too discouraging to continue through to its finish. Unfortunately, there have been relatively long periods in the life of Buckeye Lake Yacht Club for which no records, at all have been found available. It appears that, for some reasons or others or none, at least part of them may have been lost or possibly even destroyed. Furthermore, much available information in black and white has been found sketchy or chronologically uncertain, requiring considerable research, study and time in its digestion and assimilation. While the writer has been acquainted with the Club since its fourteenth year, he himself has been unable accurately to recall dates and details of many of its important happenings not of record in his time. Fortunately, however, records found most complete, and evidently authentic, deal with the Club's initial, earlier and more formative years. And as with most animate bodies, its greatest progress probably did occur preceding its maturity. Filling in some of the apparent voids has been made possible through recollections and generous cooperation of many still active members of the Club, especially commodores no longer with portfolios. With such background, and within his limited time and capacity, the writer has endeavored to present as much true history of the Club as possible.
