New Club Members Information
Welcome to Imperial Harbor and Harbor Club
Now that you are settled in, you might want to find out how to become a club member.
- First, we have limited availability for new membership. It doesn't mean we don't have it, but you will need to check with the office and see what is available. Office hours and days are posted at the bottom of every page on this site. They change based on season.
- Download your application form for quick and easy process.
- If your home came with a club membership upon purchasing, congratulations, you can transfer the certificate in your name. You will need to bring that into the office, along with a copy of your deed and IDs, to have it transferred into your name. Access to Club facilities will not be available until after your certificate has been transferred.
- Electronic card keys are replaced every year when your membership is renewed. Usually it will be a different color.
- As a club member, we recommend you join our Harbor Club Facebook group. We will post upcoming events, trips, games and special dinners/dance. This is for Board members to post anything pertinent to the club.
- For social, selling stuff, questions that are non-club related, making friends, we also suggest you join the Imperial Harbor Facebook group. This is for ALL residents and not just club members. Because of that, no club information/questions will be posted or communicated on that group.
- Once a month during season, we have a general assembly. During this meeting, you will have the opportunity to vote on proposed projects, find out about enhancements and the state of our clubhouse. We need you to make every effort to attend when you are in town.
In addition to above, here are some additional basic information.
- POOL: Hours are from dawn to dusk, but understand, we do not have paid staff. EVERYTHING is based on you volunteering. We encourage new people to volunteer when asked as a way to make friends. Sign-up sheets can be found near the entrance to the bathrooms by the pool or inside bulletin board. We ask for volunteers to open and close the pool. Because of that, the time is flexible. The pool will remain closed during weather issues. For instance, during a tropical storm or hurricane, we will need volunteers to help secure outdoor furnitures. When the pool has been inspect for damage or debris, the pool can open and we will need volunteers again to put outdoor furniture out. During a cold spell, the pool will remain closed until the temperatures warm up. Usually you can expect anything below 67 F to cause the pool to remain closed.
- VOLUNTEER! This club has managed to keep it's dues low due to your neighbors willing to volunteer. If we didn't have volunteers, thus hiring staff, your dues would go up. Our busiest time is during season, which falls between Nov - Mar of every year. We encourage seasonal people to volunteer during those months. We have permanent residents as well and they usually volunteer off season.
- EVENTS: Special activities or events usually require you to sign up. This will be in the form of a sign-up sheet located inside the club house. Posts on Facebook Events are curtesy notifications only and do not count as signing up for the event. This will help our volunteers know how much food, space will be required. We have limited seating at some events and it will be on a first come, first serve basis. Some events will have the ability to pay online via this website. If that is the case, your payment is your sign up.
- SPECIAL EVENTS TICKET SALES: From time to time, we host special events, such as a dance party or entertainment. This events require advance purchase of tickets. Most of the times the tickets will be sold out and can't be purchased at the door. The club Facebook and newsletter will be the best way to get information about these events. You can buy tickets via our website, but you must register first. Also volunteers will sell them during cafe or lunch events (check club calendar) and during office hours. In person we accept cash or checks, online you can use bank transfer or credit/debit card.
- HARBORITE NEWSLETTER: We also publish a monthly newsletter that is available on our website, club Facebook and limited printed copies in the library next to the office. This is a great source of information on happenings and events.
