DEBENTURES
This
is a system that enables all skipper-owners to invest in the
club's capital cost of a wet or dry mooring. A debenture is
required for a Senior "A" member to keep a boat at
the club unless the boat is on a sub-leased dock. This debenture
does not bear interest and is refundable upon termination of
membership, providing that a buyer is available.
More information on this subject can be found in the Information
and Guide Booklet described at the top of this page.
FEE
STRUCTURE
The
fee structure is available from
here.
WORK
HOURS
The
Work Hour Programme is designed to keep our cost
structure and hence Members' fees, as low as possible. Senior
"A", Senior "B", and Social "A"
members with a berth, participate in the Work
Hour Programme. Methods of earning work hour credits
include helping with events, tending to facilities, and
participating in work parties. Some services that do not require
physical labour are reserved for mature members.
Members
must work twenty-one hours per year between November 1 and
October 31. Each hour is valued at a specific dollar amount and
members who have not accumulated the 21 hours pay the difference
in dollars. Required hours for members joining part-way through
the season are pro-rated. Accumulated work hour credits may be
carried forward to the following year and are recorded in a
Monthly Statement Immediate family (spouse or children) may
contribute work to a member’s account. However, the work
parties tend to be a social occasion, enabling members to meet
other members.
CLUBHOUSE
FACILITIES
Payment
for food, bar or entertainment is by Chit. Members must provide
a Visa or a MasterCard number that is kept on file, and debited
at the end of each month for purchases. Guests and members may
use Interac, Visa or MasterCard directly. Cash sales are not
accepted. There is a 10% service charge added to the food and
beverage purchases.
