Prairie Club Membership Application Pause – October 2025
We are honored by the abundance of interest in Prairie Club membership that we have recently received. However, in order to preserve and maintain our mission and overall enjoyment for our current members, on October 22, 2025 the Membership Committee and Prairie Club Board have voted on and approved a measure to temporarily pause applications for membership. This pause will run from the October 22, 2025 PC board meeting until the April 2026 PC board meeting.
The following three exemptions apply during the membership application pause:
Exemption 1: Applications which pertain to Spring Grove Lodge and Camp Rules, 13F:
13. OBLIGATIONS OF MEMBERS AND GUESTS
F. All site holders must be active members.
Exemption 2: Applications for immediate family of current siteholders, ages 21 and up. These applications are necessary to abide by the current Hazelhurst Camp Rule 12A, Classification 1:
12. RENTING AND GUESTS
A. The use of a cottage by non-siteholders is under the following three classifications.
Classification 1: A Siteholder may permit the occupancy of their cottage during their absence by members of their immediate family (spouse, parents, children, grandchildren, brothers, sisters, and in-laws) and their guests. The Property Manager must be notified in advance. All such family members who have reached age 21 and who occupy a cottage more than 15 days in a calendar year in the absence of a Siteholder, must hold active membership in the Club.
Exemption 3: Applications for dependent children (ages 16-20) of current Siteholders.
Certain applications outside of the above exemptions may be reviewed on a case-by-case basis by the Prairie Club board. All other Prairie Club membership applications will be placed on hold pending further review until such time open membership resumes.
