Join, Renew or Donate

Join PARC, renew your membership, or support the club with a donation. Membership is $35 a year for an individual and $60 a year for a family.

Not sure whether you’re current? Check your membership status first.

Before you renew: check your PayPal account for an automatic renewal that’s already set up. We’ve had members renew by hand and then have PayPal pay again automatically, which we then have to refund.
