      "q": "Who can sail the full-sized boats?",
      "a": "Any member can sail the Lido 14s. Before a club member uses a club Lido, they MUST sail with one of the fleet captains so that they understand the process for using the boat (retrieving it from mooring, rigging, etc.) and what their responsibilities are with regard to reservations and caring for the boats. LGYC is a volunteer organization; therefore members taking advantage of sailing the full-sized boats are collectively expected to contribute their time and effort toward their upkeep and maintenance, including participation in launching the boats at the beginning of the season, regular \"work parties\" to repair and maintain the boats, and pulling the boats out of the water at the end of the season.",

There are parking and admission fees, and there is a fee for using your own watercraft on the lake.
