Registration of membership includes annual payment of club dues.  New and returning members are asked to register and pay their dues each year in September at the beginning of the new club season.  All registrations (with dues payments) should be made online as instructed below.  All payments are made via PayPal.  You do not need to have a PayPal account to submit your payment;  you only need a working credit card.

If you cannot pay your dues online, please email our Treasurer to arrange an alternate payment method.
