ASHTABULA — The Ashtabula Yacht Club has operated in the city for over a century, with its current base on the Ashtabula River just south of the Ashtabula Lift Bridge.
The organization is applying for an around $330,000 grant from the Ohio Lake Erie Commission to fund the revitalization of their current property.
