The club near me has no initiation fee (they make a point of it on their

Just out of curiosity, how does a club that operates that way
allow for expansion? For example, if they get a dozen or so
new members, they're going to want another glider, but
they won't have any money to buy it. Unless I'm missing
something obvious here.

What club is it, and what do they fly?

This is the club:

I am not sure how many planes they have, but mention is made of a Schweizer
SGS 2-33.

I do not know how they manage their fiscal affairs - I'm still waiting for
a response to an e-mail I sent them. I may have to drop by on Thursday or
Saturday.
