The Club membership consists of couples or singles who are members in good standing.

All members are expected to attend Club dances as frequently as possible, promote fellowship and good will in all Club activities, and perform a fair share of Club duties by serving as officers, on committees or decorations at the dance.

There are six Dinner Dances per year. Dinner Dances are to be attended by couples which can consist of a member along with their partner or a guest.
