Membership

Full Members
Members of the Monte Sano Club own equity in the Club. A member can attend meetings of the Club, vote on issues before the Club, and can serve on the Board of Directors. Or course, members have full right to use the facilities of the club.
The annual dues are determined each year by the Board of Directors. Dues are due on March 1, and are delinquent after March 31. A late fee, determined by the Board of Directors, must be paid after March 31.
A member of the Monte Sano Club can sell (or give) the membership to someone else. The cost of the membership is decided by the seller and the buyer. However, the Board of Directors must approve the transfer, and a transfer fee of $125 must be paid to the Club.

Family Members
Any person who permanently resides in the home of a member (or permit holder) may use the facilities of the Club. A young adult who no longer resides in the home of a member is considered a guest, and must be accompanied by a member and pay the usual guest fee. Baby-sitters who have been approved by the Board are not required to pay a guest fee when supervising a child of a member at the Club.

Summer Permits
A Su mmer Permit gives all of the rights to use the facilities of the Club for a summer season (as described on this page). However, a Summer Permit does not grant equity in the Club, and a Summer Permit holder cannot serve on the Board and has no voting rights. The number of summer permits and the cost of a summer permit are determined each year by the Board of Directors.
