COMMITTEE
FEATURE
TheMember-owned structure of The American Club provides
ample opportunities for Members to participate in Club life
by serving on one of 19 Committees. These committees help
chart the course for The Club by working closely with The
Club’s Management to set policies and procedures that
help to ensure The Club remains a successful, thriving and
vibrant community.
Membership Committee
The Membership Committee (MC), consisting of no more
than 12 Members, has oversight of all membership matters
through the development of membership policies and
procedures that are administered by Management. The
MC plays a critical role in supporting The Club’s desired
membership level and mix to ensure a vibrant and close-
knit Club community. The MC acts as an advisor to the
General Committee (GC) on Membership demographics,
requests for membership transfers, new Corporate and
Service membership applications, status of wait lists,
etc. They also make recommendations to the GC on
membership fees, dues, transfer fees and absent status
policies. Additionally, the MC acts as liaison between
Members and the Membership Department for questions
on membership fees, dues, payment plans, transfer fees,
absentee requests and resignations.
The MC meets on a monthly basis and works closely with
Management to develop membership assumptions for
the annual budget, as well as the annual membership
marketing plan to achieve budgeted membership activity.
