Membership policy

Member Fair Use Policy

Designed to keep simulator access open, predictable, and fair for every member.

Why this exists

Founding Membership includes up to 10 hours of simulator access per week under this Fair Use Policy. Bay access is a shared, limited resource. With a small number of bays serving every member, these rules help keep access open and fair for all Founding Members.

1. Usage limits

  • Up to 4 hours of bay time per day.
  • Up to 10 hours of bay time per week.
  • The week runs Monday at 12:00 AM through Sunday at 11:59 PM local time and resets each Monday.

2. Booking

  • Reserve a bay through the Greenside booking system up to 14 days in advance.
  • You may occupy only one bay at a time during active play.
  • You may hold up to 3 future reservations on the calendar at once. As each session is completed, you are free to book another.
  • Minimum session length is 30 minutes.

3. Arrivals, cancellations, and no-shows

  • Cancel or modify a reservation at least 2 hours before the start time at no penalty.
  • Arrive within 15 minutes of your start time. After 15 minutes, the bay may be released to another member; the reserved time still counts toward your daily and weekly limits.
  • Late cancellations inside 2 hours and no-shows count toward your weekly hours.
  • 3 or more no-shows within any 30-day period may result in a 7-day suspension of booking privileges.

4. Peak hours

  • During high-demand periods, typically weekday evenings and weekends, Greenside may temporarily limit sessions to 2 hours, cap advance bookings, or adjust availability to keep bays open for more members. Any such limits will be posted in advance.

5. Guests

  • Members may bring guests. The member must be present for the entire session.
  • Guest time counts toward the member's daily and weekly limits, and standard guest fees apply.
  • Members are responsible for their guests' conduct and adherence to club rules.

6. Shared and member-to-member use

  • Two or more members may share a single booked bay; the time counts toward the hours of the member who reserved it.
  • Bays may not be used for commercial purposes, including paid instruction by anyone other than a Greenside-approved coach.

7. Conduct and shared space

  • Treat equipment, simulators, and the space with care. Report any damage or malfunction immediately.
  • Members are responsible for damage caused by misuse.
  • End sessions on time so the next member can start as scheduled.

8. Enforcement

  • We address issues in good faith and in proportion: a reminder first, then booking limits, then suspension, and, for repeated or serious abuse, termination of membership.
  • Membership terminated for cause is not eligible for refund of the founding deposit or any paid membership fees.

9. Membership rate and changes

  • Your founding rate is $250 per month.
  • Greenside may modify membership pricing, structure, benefits, or availability for new and renewing members. Any change to your own rate will be communicated with at least 30 days' written notice.
  • Greenside may update this Fair Use Policy from time to time to maintain availability and fairness; material changes will be communicated to members.
