New Membership at Saybrook Bath & Racquet Club

Thank you for your interest in Saybrook Bath & Racquet Club! We are looking forward to another great summer of swimming, tennis and social activities and hope your family will be there to join us! Membership choices are as follows:

Trial Membership: $750 updated 9/1/2021

Trial Memberships are available one time only. A trial membership cannot be renewed or extended for an additional summer. If you have been a trial or equity member of Saybrook at any time then you are not eligible for a trial membership. Trial members enjoy all of the privileges of Equity members (swim team, swim lessons, water polo, social events, etc.) with the exception of voting rights. The Trial membership expires at the end of the summer season – the last day the pool is open. For a Trial Membership please complete the Membership Information form (the blue button to the right of this page) and send in the form along with your check made payable to the Saybrook Bath and Racquet Club.

New Bond – Equity Membership: $3,350 Bond

A new equity membership bond may be purchased through the pool. On top of the bond purchase membership dues must be paid for that first summer. Family membership dues are $625. Because your membership decision requires a significant financial investment, memberships purchased directly from SBRC may be paid in up to two installments over not more than 90 days, but prior to July 1. We can send you a copy of the SBRC By-laws for your review. To purchase a new bond please complete the Membership Information form (the blue button to the right of this page) and send in the form along with your check made payable to Saybrook Bath and Racquet Club.

Existing Bond – Equity Membership: Private Transaction

You do have the option of purchasing a bond from an existing pool member who is looking to sell their bond. This is a private transaction, so the price is agreed upon by the buyer and seller. Additionally, in order to complete a bond transfer a transfer fee payment of $670 is paid directly to the Saybrook Bath and Racquet Club by either the buyer or seller. The seller and you should determine which party will take responsibility for the transfer fee and should be considered in your purchase decision. In addition to the bond purchase and transfer fee, membership dues must be paid for that first summer. Family membership dues are $625.

Please note that any unpaid past dues or assessments that the existing bondholder has, must be paid prior to the bond transfer.  These potential costs, along with the transfer fee, should be considered when negotiating the sale price of the bond. If you are interested in purchasing an existing bond, the pool keeps a list of people that are interested in selling. You can request to receive a copy of this list by contacting the membership chair at membership@saybrookpool.com.
