Directions

Basic synopsis ............ the Marina is located just inside Illinois abutting the corner where the Illinois / Wisconsin State Line hits Lake
Michigan.  The Winthrop Harbor Yacht Club is about 150 feet south of that corner.

>From the North ...............
Take Interstate 94 East (you are actually travelling South) to the Russell Road exit.  Russell Road is on the Illinois/Wisconsin State
Line.

>From the South ............
Take 94 West (actually going North) ....................

At the end of the exit ramp turn left and go east on Russell Road.  Goe East about 7 or 8 miles until the end of Russell Road.  You are at the
intersection of Sheridan Road, there is a Citgo station to your left and a transmission shop to your right.\

Turn right and go South on Sheridan Road to 7th Street (which is the first stop light).  Turn left on 7th Street and go East into the
Marina.  GO SLOW.  The speed limit is 25mph and there are 3 competing police departments enforcing it.  7th Street ends in front of the
Administration Building in the Marina.  Turn left (go North) and follow the edge of the  water keeping the water on your right.  Stay to the
right and you will find the Winthrop Harbor Yacht Club.

If you get lost call me on my cell phone 847-338-8808 and we will guide you in.

A photo of the marina can be found her (before the Yacht Club was
built).  The sandy area is the left center of the picture is where the
Yacht Club is now located.
