We currently have only one type of Membership. It's called a "Household Membership". It covers 2 adults (that means 2 individuals at least 18 years old ...could be husband/wife, parent/adult child, etc.), and as many "youths" that live under the same roof. A "youth" is anyone aged 17 years and under.

The cost for a "Household Membership" is $100 annually, and the Membership term is not pro-rated, It runs from January 1st till December 31st To remain as a "Member in Good Standing" ...meaning a Member that is working toward an "Equity Membership" (after 5 contiguous/consecutive years of being a "Member in Good Standing", you become an "Equity" Member). If you maintain your Membership, you retain the same Membership number annually. If you quit the Club, or do not renew by the second Monday of the following February, you lose equity, and the accrued time count begins anew.

To reiterate: If you do not renew your Membership by the second Monday of February (extended through March 12th 2018 this year) the following year, you are no longer a "Member in Good Standing", you lose your "Equity Member" status if applicable and you must re-apply by filling out an application, and naming a sponsor. All that is required to remain as a Member in Good Standing, is to renew your Membership by the second Monday of February (extended through March 12th 2018 this year) every year, and in the interim, not do something to harm the Club, have a significant conviction from Fish & Game, or be convicted of a felony. After five consecutive years of being a Member in Good Standing, you become an "Equity Member".

We reserve the right to do a background check at the time of application.

We require* that all prospective Members have a sponsor, and while you are not required to appear at the meeting when you come up for a vote, we do appreciate those who show up in person. A Membership vote will not occur without a check, MO, or cash payment received either before or on the day of the vote, along with a completed application. You are not a Member until a successful vote has occurred and payment and all terms delineated on the application have been met.

The membership application process is simple. Membership applications can be acquired from the mailbox attached to the bulletin board at the Club's entrance, via email request, by telephone then US Mail or you may download and print out an application by clicking the link "Membership Application" in the left-hand column of any page on the Club's website (mrgci.com). Or you may download and print out an application from the link below:

   MRGCI Membership Application Form

Votes occur just once per month at the monthly Member's Meeting (2nd Monday of each month) as the prospective Member's names are read, then (assuming a quorum, and that all terms of the application have been met and payment has been made) put to the assembled Membership for a vote. Once voted-in, and after you complete the mandatory orientation**, you will receive a Membership card for each adult. Each card shares the same Membership number, the Member's name, and the combination to the lock on our entrance gate.

There is an annually stocked fishing pond on the Club's grounds. To fish the annually stocked pond requires a "Fish Stamp", acquired by paying an additional $10 fee for each adult who wishes to fish in the Club's pond. The "Fish Stamp" is placed on the paying adult Member's Membership Card. That money is earmarked for stocking the pond. Any youth covered under a household Membership may fish for free when accompanied by an adult Member (the adult Member does not require a fish stamp in this instance, as long as they do not fish). For those who wish to fish, the $10 fee may be paid at the time of application, or anytime thereafter.

ATTENTION: As of our October 9, 2017 Member's Meeting, our Membership wiil be at capacity. You may still apply for Membership, the applications will be queued in chronological order. The current Membership is set at a 300 Household Membership cap. Depending upon voting, the Membership Cap may well be adjusted in the coming months. In the meantime, for those who are simply looking to sight-in their rifles and pattern their shotguns for the coming hunting seasons, please communicate this to the Club, and we may make arrangements on a "guest" basis. Click here to email the Club

ATTENTION: As of April 13, 2015 a mandatory orientation** is required to attain full Membership into the Club after you are officially voted-in at our Monthly Member's Meeting. It is your responsibility to arrange an orientation before receiving your Membership Card and Gate Code. Click here to email the Chair of the Orientation Committee.

We currently have a 300 Member cap in place. When that cap is reached (this occurred on prospective applicants will be placed on a chronological "waiting" list where applicants will be notified as Memberships become available through attrition. That's until the new year starts. If current Members have not renewed by the second Monday in January, the opportunity for new applicants becomes available. And if a current Member has not renewed by the second Monday of February, they will lose their "Equity" status and risk losing their spot to an applicant on the waiting list.

* We understand that sometimes it is unreasonable to expect that someone who is new to the area has an acquaintance who is a current Club Member for sponsorship. In these cases, we expect that the prospective applicant discuss this deficit with the Club, and if a waiver is granted, the prospective Member must appear at the meeting when the vote for Membership occurs.

** On April 13th 2015 a vote was taken and the motion passed to require a mandatory orientation to become a Club Member. This only happens after the new Member has been voted into the Club at any regular Monthly Member's Meeting. This orientation is normally scheduled to take place on the Sunday morning following the Monday vote, at 9:00AM. If this is problematic, other arrangements may be made. It is up to the new Member to make these arrangemets with the Head of Orientation. As of April 2015, please contact orientation@mrgci.com.
