If you are interested in joining Skyline Soaring Club, please contact our membership coordinator. Please contact us via the Contact Us link.
If you would like to apply to join the club, please fill out the online application.
Please note that there is a wait-list for applicants who do not possess a glider rating. Once you are accepted as a probationary member, you are expected to attend annual safety meetings, participate as a volunteer to keep operations running, fly as often as you can, and get your glider rating in a timely manner. Probationary members are required to pay all of the initiation fees, and join the Soaring Society of America. After one year as a probationary member, you can get accepted as a full member of the club.
Probationary and Full members of the club are expected to perform volunteer duty assignments. At first, this will be "Assistant Duty Officer", which means you will have to help with the ground crew operations.
Please see the Fees & Dues Schedule document below.
