Barefoot Sailing Club (BFSC)BFSC was founded in 1971 for people who love sailing whether they owned a boat or not. Originally focusing on dingy racing, the club has morphed into an array of sailing choices. Members enjoy racing on cruisers and racing boats, cruising around the lake and rafting up for social activities. Regardless of your level of expertise on a boat, BFSC is one of the best sailing homes you can find on Lake Lanier!678-871-7937, Yeoman - bfscyeoman@gmail.com P.O. Box 147 Flowery Branch, GA 30542
