Membership Availability / Process
To insure a continued focus on boating, the Club limits the number of members who are not assigned moorage. Currently all slips are full. If you are interested in joining the club to be placed on a Moorage waiting list use the Contact Us link and the Vice Commodore will respond to your inquiry. You would then submit a membership application with your initiation fee to the address below. An orientation for potential members is typically held before the General Membership meeting on the 1st Tuesday of the month. If there is no moorage available, you are encouraged to be placed on our waiting list. If you have questions, don’t hesitate to Contact Us via contact form.
