Default How does your club handle transient members?

I tend to agree with Hank. my feeling is that if you're in the club
you should be in the club. yes i suppose it could get frustrating
that you pay what seems like more dues than you are getting your
money's worth but everyone has to chip in. It is easy to fall in the
trap of thinking clubs are like FBO's. I know I have fallen into that
line of thinking in the past, wondering what my club could do for me
instead of what I could do for my club. I happily pay my regular
monthly dues to my "old" club so that I can get a tow if I ever get
back that way. My regular money is my way of chipping in since I'm
not around to help out.

Although after saying that I really appreciated being able to join the
Caprock Soaring club as an "associate" member or something like that
when I visited there over Labor Day. It was a fairly cheap join fee
(ended up about the same as a tow at a commercial operation) and
allowed me to get a tow so I could have a fantastic flight.
