By Checking the Acknowledge Box, the applicant understands that:
This is a limited offer that may be revoked at any time. The applicant shall abide by the rules of the club existing and instituted. All members, guests, applicants, or other persons shall conduct themselves professionally at all times and be respectful of all persons while on club property, representing the club, or on social media platforms or similar,
Failure to abide by club rules, or rule of law shall result in review by the board and/or removal from premises without warning. Frenchman's Bay Yacht Club is a welcoming and inclusive environment. Harassment is not tolerated.
Projects & Committees
I understand that FBYC is a working club and in an attempt to maintain low expense levels, each Yachting, Water, and Associate Member is required to give volunteer labour hours (amount TBD annually by the board of directors) to the Club each year. A member may opt to pay for the hours in lieu of working them. All assigned hours and payments for unfulfilled hours must be completed by December 31. The hourly rate and the number of required hours will be established by the Board of Directors during the annual budget process. Once a Member has attained the age of 75 years, volunteer labour hours will become elective. These Members are encouraged to participate at their discretion but will not be assessed a dollar amount for any shortfall.
Liability Insurance
Prospective members are reminded that evidence of vessel insurance in the amount of $2,000,000 must be presented to the Membership committee prior to the acceptance of their application for membership, and that such insurance coverage must be maintained on my vessel while I am a member of the Club.
Statement of Membership Liability Waiver
In accordance with the Club's Constitution, Frenchman's Bay Yacht Club ("Club") shall not be liable for any damages arising from personal injury, property loss or damage, sustained by the Member in attending in the Club, participating in Club activities and/or using Club facilities. The Member assumes full responsibility for any personal injury, property loss or damage which may be sustained by the Member in, on or about the Club facilities and/or during club activities and hereby fully and forever releases and discharges the Club, its directors (solely in their capacity as directors), agents and employees from any and all claims of action, present and future, whether the same be known or unknown, anticipated or unanticipated resulting from or arising out of the Members use of the Club facilities and/or participation in Club activities, including but without limitation, any claims for personal injury, property loss or damage arising out of the negligence of the Club or its members, agents and employees or any other persons using the Club facilities and/or participating in Club activities as guests or invitees to the extent that such assumption of risk and waiver of claims does not discharge release or relieve the Member's insurance carriers under policies covering the Member or his/her property.
Further, I agree to pay the fee of $1.00 to FBYC for consideration of my application to membership.
Probationary Period
All new and reinstated members will be on probation for one (1) year following admission. At any time within the probationary period the Executive has the right to terminate the application, and reimburse the applicant for initiation fees and any debentures paid. This offer is once in a lifetime per family or at the discretion of FBYC. Limited offerings. No warranty is expressed. Terms of membership may be changed at any time. Terms of offering including previous offerings may be changed or revoked at any time.
I have read and understand the above and agree with all of the terms and conditions set out therein.
