Do I need to carry a membership card?

We no longer print membership cards and staff will contact you when your membership is up for renewal.

​

​

How long are benefits valid?

They’re good for one year, through the end of the month of your join or renewal date. For example, if you joined or renewed on July 14 - your membership would run one year, ending on July 31 the following year.

​

Previously, I was able to gift a membership to an individual as a membership benefit. If I give at the same amount, will I still receive this benefit?

No, we longer offer that benefit. We always welcome new members and you can purchase gift memberships here.
