Club Membership

Dear Prospective Member,
 
  Thank you for your interest in the Caberfae Ski Club. We’re glad that you are considering the benefits of membership in our organization.
  We are a family oriented ski club in a unique position of owning our own property at a ski resort. We exist to gather people who are interested in having fun in the snow by providing a friendly social club for those who enjoy skiing. We have been in existence since the late 1930s. In fact, our club was part of a Cadillac Winter Sports organization which started the original Caberfae Ski area.
  We have approximately 150 memberships with members in their 90s to young members just starting their professional or working careers. We have our own food and beverage services at the club, and since we are a not-for-profit group, our prices are lower than typically found at a ski resort. We have ski lockers for rent at a very reasonable rate, and although we have our own parking lot, parking is limited on weekends to those who have parking permits.
  The club generally opens for the season when the area opens and is open through the Christmas holidays, and Presidents’ Day. The club opens at 9:00 a.m. Season pass holders may pick up their lift tickets at the club between 9 and 11 a.m. on weekends. Closing time varies, based on social activities occurring at the club. During the months of January and February, the club will be open on Fridays from 9:30 to 4:30 p.m. Each Saturday night during January and February, the club will be serving a "theme" dinner, generally with a social activity following the dinner. Children are welcome.
  Although the club manager serves excellent and tasty lunches at reasonable prices, you are welcome to pack your own lunch if you choose. However you may not bring alcohol into the club as we have a club liquor license. Smoking is not allowed in the building (with limited exceptions) and persons under the age of 18 are not allowed on the second floor. (Certain social events are exceptions to this latter rule.) Parking is not allowed in the club lot on weekends without a parking permit. You may use the lot temporarily to unload and load your vehicle.
  You may bring guests into the club a limited number of times. Daily guest fees are: $2.00 per adult, $1.00 per child, $5 per family, payable to the club manager. Guest fees are not charged for attendance at social events, but guests may not purchase alcohol at the club bar. Members are responsible for all guest fees.
  Annually, the club has a work bee in May and October to get the place ready for the next season. Painting, repair, maintenance and other similar work is the agenda for the day. If you do not participate in one of these work bees, there will be a small fee added to your club bill. You will billed in October for annual dues and fees.
  Hopefully, you will take full advantage of membership. We have a long, long history of great skiing at Caberfae. You can be a part of that history.
