Membership Information
Active member dues are $68 per quarter wich includes all meals at club meetings. There are reduced dues for couples and for those who don't wish to eat at meetings. A one time initiation fee of $20 is required for new Civitans. Former Junior Civitans and transfers from other clubs do not pay this fee. Member dues include a subscription to Civitan magazine.
Our club offers volunteer opportunities to individuals while we enjoy the fellowship of our neighbors through the club's service projects and activities. Most members live or work in the Irmo or St. Andrews area but membership is open to all adults who wish to participate. As a member of Civitan International, opportunities exist for leadership roles at the district and international level, in addition to within our club, and friendships are developed with Civitans from around the world. Visitors are welcome at all our meetings. Please join us at a meeting or contact us by e-mail. |
