Frequently asked Questions about the Food & Beverage Minimum

1. Do I have to meet a portion of the minimum each month?

Answer: No. It is an annual minimum and each membership will have until December 31 each year to meet the minimum.

2. When will I be billed for any food and beverage minimum charge I owe?

Answer: Any membership not having met the minimum as of December 31, will be charged for the portion of the minimum not met during the prior year in the January Member invoice. During the year in which the minimum must be met, a report of the amount of any remaining required minimum will be included in the Member's monthly statement for informational purposes but will not be a charge then due.
