As a community-operated pool, both service hours and funds are crucial to maintaining a sustainable summer home. In lieu of raising rates, members can choose to earn 5 volunteer credits per household or pay $50. Both options help offset the rising cost of pool operations.
Click the Volunteer Sign-up Options to see the comprehensive list broken up into categories (Social, Landscaping, Maintenance, and Administrative). Many options have a great deal of flexibility so see what credit opportunities fit your schedule. Many members are already helping on these projects regularly, now you’ll get credit for your service!
The volunteer payment is waived once your household has met the 5 credit requirements. If your household does not meet the requirement, you will receive an invoice in November for $50.
Already know you don’t feel like volunteering? Add the “Pay for Volunteer Credit” product to your cart to authorize the non-refundable pre-payment of $50 in lieu of completing the required volunteer work. This option should be considered if your membership does not intend or is not able to complete volunteer to work to support the pool this summer. Do not select this option if you are uncertain about your volunteer commitments for the summer. Refunds will not be honored if this pre-payment is paid.
