MEMBER RENEWAL (ON NOV 1): $100 total
NO ACTIVE EMAIL ADDRESS FEE: We must be able to communicate with our members. We do this via email because 97% of our members have and read their email, plus it is easy and it is free. For the remaining members, we mail out communications via USPS which is time-consuming and costs. Therefore, there is a $20 fee per year is you do not have (or read) an email account.
FALL PRORATED OFFER: New members who join during the last three months of our membership year, may pay $15 per month from date of application until November 1st, plus $225 to acquire membership from the date of application until November 1st, of the following year. For example: membership beginning August 1, 2024, would not expire until November 1, 2025. That's 15 months for $270. To apply for membership in our club, you may click on the new member application button and the orientation program button then print yourself a copy. Read the orientation program carefully and then fill out the application completely, be sure to sign at the "X", enclose a check for the appropriate amount, and mail the application to our address, shown on the application. NOTE: Please plan ahead, you must have discovered the validation code in the Orientation program before you will be allowed access to the ranges.
To renew your membership, you will need only to open your emailed renewal invoice that you will receive in September or early October and click on the "PAY NOW" button. There is not a paper renewal form available at the moment.
