The Bay City Boat and Fishing Club was organised in 1894 as the first boat club on the Saginaw River. On 1 January 1895, the club opened its clubhouse: Foot of Scheurmann Street, Essexville. I was unable to find whether a burgee went with that very first name; by 1897, however, the club apparently had changed its name, as it was now referred to as the "Bay City Boat Club".
By 1904 the club moved their house to a new location. Literally: In the Winter they moved the original clubhouse over the ice to the new site, and afterwards built a new club house attached to it.
Lloyd's Register of American Yachts, 1917, pictures the burgee of the Bay City Boat Club as: A very dark blue broad pennant with a sharp split, with white flywise edges, and with in white the text "B.C.B.C.", slightly lower at the hoist.

Lloyd's Register of American Yachts, 1929, pictures a slightly different burgee, for the club, which is then named "Bay City Yacht Club": A very dark blue broad pennant with a sharp split, with off-set white flywise edges, and
with in white the text "BCYC.", shrinking towards the fly.
