2026 Memberships
Memberships are now due — avoid extra costs and buy yours now! We have increased non-member game fees to $14 (an increase of $2), making a membership an even better deal — you now save $4 per game, with payback at just 18 games in the year. This increase takes effect May 1, 2026.
Please note this is the first increase in any fee in the last 3 years. We hope to keep fees the same as long as possible but costs are increasing.
