Full Membership has a one time $50 initiation fee and is $600 for the 2022-23 year.
Full members have access to the Lodge all year, with their own key and are allowed to choose an assigned bunkroom. Members may store bedding in their room, and gear in the basement. Membership also includes an Eastern Inter-Club Ski League (EICSL) membership, which allows you to be eligible to attend EICSL events (apres socials, ski trips, and summer activities) and receive discounts at local shops, restaurants, and lift tickets. Memberships are annual and renewed each year at our May meeting. New applications are accepted on a rolling basis and voted on during monthly board meetings.
Members are required to participate in at least one scheduled work weekend each year. Work weekends may occur in the spring and/or fall, depending on the type of projects. Based on direction from the Lodge Chair and the Makusue Board, members spend Saturday and Sunday working on repairs and improvements to the club and sprucing things up. It’s a great time to bond with fellow members, show off your skills (or learn a thing or two), and have some fun. If you are unable to make a work weekend you will pay a $75 per day work weekend due, ($150 total).
To be eligible for Full Membership, you must be over 21 and you must stay at the Lodge at least three (3) organized weekends to get a chance to meet the membership. Above all, you must enjoy the club and being part of a team that keeps it running!
Race Team Membership is $65.00 per year.
Join the Makusues as a racer and enjoy discount tickets to race days and some friendly competition. You will receive an EICSL ID and all associated discounts. Race members must have a sponsor and are required to pay guest fees when you stay at the lodge and are not issued a key to the building.
Anyone can apply to join as a Race Member. Race memberships are due in October, but late signups are allowed through the season with an additional $5 fee.
