MEMBERSHIP FAQ
For Prospective Members
How do I become a member?
You must live within 20171 or the Courts of
Fox Mill. The club maintains a waitlist of qualified candidates. When
memberships are sold back to the club, the membership director offers
the membership to a family on the waitlist. You also can attempt to buy
a membership on the open market.
How do I get on the wait list?
Fill out the contact form below.
What does it cost to be a member?
The Board of Directors sets prices according to market conditions. As of May 2009, the club
buys back memberships for $1400 and sells them for $1600. In addition,
annual dues are currently set at $360/year.
Does membership include tennis?
Yes.
Can I get a tennis-only membership?
Currently tennis-only memberships are not an
option.
I am planning to buy a membership from an existing
member. What should I do?
Send an email to
membership@pinecrest20171.com, and the Membership Director will
verify that the seller is a member in good standing.
For Current Members
Can I rent/lease a membership from another
member?
A tenant may lease the membership of their
landlord. Otherwise, leasing is not permitted. Also, if leased, the
landlord may not use the facilities. If you are going to rent your
property and plan to give rentors the membership please send an email to
membership@pinecrest20171.com
to ensure their name is put on as the user of the facility. Failure to
do so will mean that your rentor will not be allowed in the club as
their name will not be in our database.
I have a nanny/au pair. How can arrange
for this person to use the club's facilities (swim/tennis/etc)?
You can buy a one-season 'nanny pass' for
$75. The nanny pass allows the nanny/au pair to use the facilities,
with or without a corresponding family member, for one season.
Alternatively, you may buy one or more guest passes ($30 for ten
visits). With the guest pass, the nanny/au pair must be accompanied by
you or your children. Guest passes can carry over to future years,
whereas a nanny pass cannot carry over. Checks should be mailed to the
Club's PO Box. If buying a nanny pass, you must also provide the
following information with your check: your membership number, the
person's name and the person's birthdate.
I am getting divorced. Who gets the
membership?
The membership is property, just like any
other jointly owned property. Unless co-habitating, divorced parties
cannot both share the same membership. That is, if the membership is in
both names, the certificate should be reissued in the name of the party
retaining ownership. Ideally, both parties should sign the original
certificate over to the party keeping the membership. If a new
certificate is desired, send an email to info@pinecrest20171.com. A new
certificate will then be issued in the name of the retaining party in
exchange for either a) the old certificate with signatures of both
original owners; or b) a letter signed by both original owners
indicating the membership is lost and that ownership is transferring to a
single party. If the parties cannot agree about ownership, then
ownership should be addressed in the divorce property settlement. Upon
presentation of a property settlement decree or other evidence, a new
certificate will be issued in the name of the retaining party.
I am divorced and am a member. Can my ex-spouse
use my membership to take the kids to the pool?
Yes. However, unless your ex-spouse is a
member of your household, your ex-spouse must pay a guest fee to
accompany the children to the pool.
I lost my membership certificate. Do I need it to
sell my membership?
No. You can give your seller a clearly
written letter indicating that you misplaced your certificate and that
you are selling your membership to ___________ for due consideration on
__________ [date]. Both co-owners should sign the letter.
I lost my membership certificate and would like
another for my records.
Send an email to membership@pinecrest20171.com,
and the Membership Director will make arrangements to give you a new
certificate.
I bought my membership from another member and never
received a membership certificate. I would like a certificate for my
records.
Send an email to membership@pinecrest20171.com,
and the Membership Director will make arrangements to give you a
certificate.
