Why Memberhips?
Memberships serve a few purposes:
a. Anyone participating in our program needs to be covered by the insurance policy paid for by membership fees.
b. For security and safety of our facility and members, we want to know exactly who is on the property and when. Members will wear name tags and sign in and out.
c. We want to create a true community feel, with people you recognize, whose names you learn, and whose presence you can rely on as your community of support, as opposed to just a collection of strangers passing through. Membership keeps people engaged which gives everyone the opportunity to forge bonds & relationships.
e. Members who are committed enough to the center to pay for it are more likely to treat the facility with a sense of pride and ownership as well--a home away from home, but it also ensures fairness with financial "burden" distributed among members to pay for the use of the space.
h. Crucially, Membership also pays for administrative costs for rental fees, organizing classes, materials and supplies, recruiting teachers, running background checks ($$), paying for administrative services like software, payroll, etc. (Costs typically covered by an "administration fee.")
