3. Member Obligations

Each member must provide proof that (s)he is currently a member in good standing of at least one Eligible Club. The list of Eligible Clubs is displayed on the website and may be changed at any time.

Proof of membership can either be a picture or scanned copy of a recent member statement or a reference letter from another Apparation member who belongs to the same Eligible Club.

Each member agrees to make a good faith effort to host at least one foursome per year enabling three other golfers to play at their club. The guests will pay for green fees, cart fees and for any other services used at the club.

Each member must pay annual dues, which are currently $100 per year and which may change from time to time at the discretion of Apparation LLC. All dues are non-refundable. If a prospective member pays dues and subsequently is unable to provide proof of membership in an Eligible Club, the amount paid will be considered to be a non-refundable application fee.

Each member agrees to adhere to the club rules of any Eligible Club when visiting as a guest or when hosting other members.
