If you are unhappy about a decision or conduct of the staff, please bring your concerns to the attention of the Club Manager or a member of the Club's Board of Directors.

The following Rules and Regulations are presented for the guidance of the membership. They are not intended to be a complete list, and are subject to modification by the Board of Directors. Failure to comply with Club Rules and Regulations may be considered sufficient cause for suspension of Club privileges or for cancellation of membership, without refund.

All dues, guest fees and late payment fees are subject to sales tax. Members are to receive notification of the annual dues plus any additional fees no later than January 31st. Payment must be made before February 28th, otherwise late fees must be paid (envelopes must be postmarked by Feb. 28th).

Any member who has not paid his annual dues and late fees by April 1st will be subject to forfeiture of their bond and membership privileges.

Membership
No memberships will be accepted for sale from March 1st to September 1st. After the membership is purchased and the initiation fee paid, all members of the family including husband, wife, children and dependent parents domiciled in the household on a year-round basis are eligible for use of the Club facilities, provided that the annual dues and any additional fees and assessments are paid in a timely manner.

Persons buying memberships will be offered in the order in which their application for membership was received, except that the first preference will go to persons buying homes of previous members. The new member must pay all fees within 14 days, and the Club will re-pay the outgoing member’s bond fee within 30 days after the membership is sold.

A special annual membership may be purchased for other persons living in the household, e.g., live-in help, exchange students, etc. The rate will be $100 each with a maximum of two per family. A non-live-in mother's helper may also have an annual pass for $100; however, he or she may use the pass only when acting in the capacity of mother's helper.

Inactive Membership
A member may retain his/her membership in an inactive status by paying $500 (including sales tax) and any bond increase by March 1 in lieu of the annual dues .The inactive member may NOT use any of the Club facilities during the summer season.

Membership Rental
The Board of Directors has authorized rentals of all approved inactive memberships at the rate of $1,850, including tax. All renters will have full use of the Club facilities during the summer season. They will be selected from the regular waiting list for Club membership. It is the intention of the Club that renters who wish to continue to use the Club will become members. Accordingly, renters may only rent for one summer season. Following the summer season, renters will once again be eligible to become members as memberships become available for purchase, but will not be permitted to rent inactive memberships. The Board will also continue to permit rentals to those persons renting the home of a member in good standing for all or part of the summer season.
