Welcome to the East Gate Swim and Tennis Club! East Gate is a community swim and tennis facility dedicated to providing its members with a clean, modern and friendly place to enjoy the long days of summer, participate in competitive swimming and diving, take swim lessons, receive tennis instruction, and make new friends. We welcome new members from not only the surrounding community, but also from all over the area. Because of our efficient management, we are able to offer all of the above at exceptional rates. While it is our hope that everyone who joins the club will be with us for many years, we also understand the transient nature of the area and thus offer several membership options.
ONLINE REGISTRATION: New for 2010, East Gate is going green, and that’s not just because of the Gators! No longer will we be printing pages of mailings and asking you to send them back. Rather, we’re conducting registration online. The link to the registration is at both the top and bottom of this page. Upon completing the registration and clicking submit, you will be re-directed to our payment page. At this point you can elect to pay online at our secure PayPal payment page either by credit card or through your pre-existing PayPal account, or print an invoice of your membership form and send it in with a check “the old fashioned way.” To make things even easier, you can also sign up the kids for swim and dive team, purchase guest cards, make association payments, and register a child care provider when completing your membership registration, and only have to make one payment. If you’re not sure about the teams now, we can always add the kids later in person at the pool. All online payments will receive a confirmation of receipt via email.
Associate Member: Associate members will be full members of the association upon payment of a $500, non-refundable association fee. Associate members receive full status upon completion of payment of this fee. If preferred, this fee may be paid in two installments of $250 at the start of two consecutive summers. These individuals will have the same voting privileges as current bond-holding members and will be entitled to a reduced annual membership cost. The rate reduction will never be less than $100, meaning that after five years, and potentially fewer, they will have recouped their initial investment in the club and will still be eligible for the lower rate. Single and couples memberships are also entitled to a reduced membership rate once payment of the association fee is received.
Summer Member: We will continue to accept summer members so long as the number of associate members does not exceed our membership capacity. Summer members do not pay the association fee but will pay higher annual dues, will not have voting privileges or be eligible to serve on the board, and do not have their place in the club guaranteed from year to year. This membership option is designed for those who generally are not sure they will be in the area for more than a few years but is open to all.
Help us Grow the East Gate Family! East Gate would like to expand its current membership base this coming summer, and what better way to do it than with singles, couples and families who our current members already know. If you have a friend who would like to join East Gate this summer, please contact us via email from the link on our homepage and provide us with his or her email address, or simply direct your friend to our site. If your friend joins the club, we’ll provide you with a $50 guest card as our way of saying thanks. For more information, please email us.
