To those Memberships who chose Leave of Absence Status for the 2020-2021 season
Summer seems to have finally arrived. Dennis, Kyle and crew are engaged in off-season club maintenance and preparing for what we all hope is a typical 2021-2022 snowsports season. This past season influenced many families to seek activities outdoors because of related pandemic restrictions. As a result, many guests were introduced to Ausblick Ski Club and the impact to our Waiting List was significant. Furthermore, we experienced over 40 Ausblick Memberships that elected to choose Leave of Absence; which gives them a priority re-enrollment for the 2021-2022 Membership renewal. I point this out because it presents a problem with managing the timing of filling memberships for the coming season.
Our invoices of the previous season General Membership are usually sent out the first week of July for the upcoming season, with payment due by the end of the month. Given the unique situation at this time, our priority re-entry memberships could fill nearly all of our historical annual turnover if everyone rejoined. This information is intended to help you understand an offer we are making to insure your priority is honored, but you must act to insure your membership in the 2021-2022 season.
Your invoice will be e-mailed in the coming days. E-mails that bounce will be mailed paper statements. We’ve implemented an on-line payment option this season to afford our receiving your payment quickly. Payment by check via mail will still be an option. Invoice payment due dates will be 30 days from invoice generation. Last season’s General membership invoices will be sent out the first week in July via e-mail and on-line payments will be afforded to everyone receiving invoices.
It’s important to understand our club is limited in the number of memberships we can have annually. Our intention is to do everything reasonably possible to insure you can rejoin the club if that’s your decision. Once the general membership invoices are released, vacancies will renew quickly.
If there are any questions, please call General Manager / Membership Chairman Dennis Evinrude at 262-246-3090.
