A Review: Membership Rules.....

Over the past year, issues have developed with regards to the Club's membership rules.  The following is an attempt to clarify.
--
Membership Fees for 2018
--- Family = $17.00
--- Single  = $12.00
---  Key    = $  3.00

-
To start, our Club has one the most relaxed set of requirements regarding membership in the area.  And our dues, even with the increase for 2018, are still a great buy for your money.  Membership in our Club offers a wide array of recreational opportunities all of which are supported by the dues collected from the members.
-
One of the issues that seems to be cropping up is nonmembers using our facilities.  To be blunt, that is theft of services along with trespassing.  Breaking the law .. and for what??   Look  at our dues schedule above.  The cost of membership is minimal, and certainly, is less than the fines that would be set in court. 
-
As members, we must get this message out there.  Do NOT be offended if you are asked to show your membership card.  Unless you are not a member, in which case that person should be embarrassed, to say the least.
-
The Club is like a co-operative.  Members are "owner/operators", and as such must take care of the place.  We are all in this together.

-
Questions have also been brought up that pertain to the "Rules" of membership.  The following are excerpts from our By-Laws .....
-

Article 2: Memberships

-
Section 3 - Each member, upon paying the Annual Dues, shall receive a Membership Card indicating the year in which he/she is in good standing.

Section 4 - All memberships expire with the calendar year.

Section 5 - A “family membership” will include 2 adults (spouses) and all children living with those adults.

Section 6 - All children (described in Section 5) will be covered by a family membership until they are no longer attending high school.

Section 9 - No complimentary memberships will be issued by any member, or the membership committee, or any officer without first getting the approval of the membership at a stated meeting.
