Guest of the Board Status

‘Guest of the Board’ privileges are being offered to long-standing members as a way to recognize their contribution to the club over the years and to provide a more economical way to continue to be a part of the club. Current members who meet the criteria may retire their bond and membership but original bond holders continue personal use of the club’s facilities at a discounted price.

Traditionally, this special membership has been reserved for bond holders who have held their membership for twenty (20) years. The application to move to this membership can be filled out by completing the form at the bottom of this page.

If your family has been a member for more than ten (10) years and you feel you have a special situation where you should be considered for early admittance to the ‘Guest of the Board’ status, the Board of Governors invites you to apply using the application below. Case-by-case determinations will be discussed, and voted on by the Board of Governors before a final decision is made.   

Before applying, please note the following conditions of ‘Guest of the Board’ status:

• If your application is accepted, you are will be asked to turn in your bonds (for refund) and give up all voting privileges.
• ‘Guest of the Board’ status is limited to the original bondholder and spouse. Your children (including those still living with you) are no longer associate members, and would be subject to daily guest fees if they attend. If they are your guest, you or your spouse must be present at the club with them.
• Participation in organized social events and lessons will be permitted at the same cost as that paid by members for the original bondholder and spouse only.
• Extended guest privileges (Swim Team, Tennis Team and the ability to add grandchildren to your account all season long for a flat fee) will not be available.
• Cost of ‘Guest of Board’ privileges will be 50% of current annual dues.

• ‘Guest of Board’ status is renewable annually and the program can be terminated at any time by decision of the Board of Governors.

• If the program is cancelled or you decide ‘Guest of the Board’ status is not a good fit for your family, you have the option of bypassing the waiting list and purchasing a full membership. Current bond price and initiation fee will apply.
