Club Bonds and Deposits
All new members are required to pay a Work Hour Security Deposit of $150, unless they choose to pay an annual opt-out fee of $150. The Deposit will be retained by the club and held in trust for so long as a member remains in the club. If in any season a member fails to fulfil the 10 hour work group requirement it will be cashed. If the Deposit has been cashed it must be paid again for the following season. When a member in good standing with bond hours leaves the club the $150 deposit will be repaid. All members are required to attend Dock Put In and Dock Pull (see club rules for exemptions)
Winter boat storage is permitted, at no extra charge, though off season boat parking is at the owners own risk.
Please note that the car pass to the Upper Thames River Conservation Authority also includes season entrance to Wildwood Day Use Area, Pittock Dam, and Fanshawe Conservation Areas.
There are some limits on boat length and keel depth which you can check out in the club rules below.
Applications from prospective members always welcome!
