Arlington has announced a new membership plan, available to Eastern Kentucky University faculty, staff and alumni, and the general public.

Those who join between now and Sept. 30, 2009, will not be charged an initiation fee (at least $1,000 in savings). The monthly charge for a resident of Madison or any adjacent county is $120, with a $25 monthly food and beverage minimum. The monthly charge for a non-resident is $80, also with a $25 monthly food and beverage minimum. (Food and beverage minimums are billed quarterly.) Payroll deduction is available for membership fees.

Arlington members have complete access to dining facilities, a premier 18-hole golf course (cart fees not included in monthly charge), an Olympic-size swimming pool, tennis courts and a soon-to-open club house that will include a Colonel’s Paddock grill, fitness center and pro shop.

Arlington, which has been serving EKU and the community for almost 40 years, is frequently used for faculty department meetings and events, business receptions, rehearsal dinners, bridal luncheons and baby showers, and wedding ceremonies and receptions. Members also participate in other special events.
