CLUB M E M BERS H I P S 



For man}' years the Botanic Garden has had the pleasure of co- 

 operating in numerous ways with Garden Clubs, Women's Clubs, 

 and other organizations of the Metropolitan area, and a plan has 

 been adopted whereby such organizations may become definitely 

 identified with the work of the Garden in promoting an interest 

 in plant life and horticulture, as follows : 



Annual Memberships. — Garden Clubs or other organizations 

 may qualify as Annual Members of the Garden on election by the 

 Board of Trustees and payment of the annual membership fee of 

 Ten Dollars. Each annual member club may designate one of its 

 officers or other member to receive such invitations, notices, and 

 publications as go to individual annual members and to represent 

 the club at all Botanic Garden functions, including flower days 

 and the annual Spring Inspection in May. 



The Club may also have the following privileges : 



a. The services of a Botanic Garden docent for a tour of the plan- 

 tations or conservatories, followed by tea. No parties of less 

 than six adults will be conducted. Schedule for such events 

 must be arranged for in advance, at dates mutually convenient 

 to the Botanic Garden and the Club. 



b. One extra-mural lecture a year by a member of the Garden staff, 

 at reduced rates. The Garden supplies a list of staff members 

 available for outside lectures, at dates mutually convenient to 

 the Garden and the organization, at a fee of $25 or $59, and 

 expenses, depending upon the individual chosen. 



Member clubs may secure these lecturers at the reduced fees 

 of $10 and $15, respectively, and expenses. Arrangements will 

 be facilitated if the Club will, with each request, designate at 

 least two names. 



c. One member of the club is entitled annually to free tuition in 

 most courses of instruction for which tuition is charged to non- 

 members. 



Sustaining Memberships. — Any club or other organization may 

 become a Sustaining Member of the Garden on election by the 

 Board of Trustees and annual payment to the Garden of the sus- 

 taining membership fee of Twenty-live Dollars. 



Sustaining membership clubs enjoy the full privileges of annual 

 membership for one in the Botanic Garden and also in the Brook- 

 lyn Museum and The Institute at the Academy of Music. They 

 may designate three members who may receive free tuition in most 

 Botanic Garden courses of instruction for which tuition is charged 

 to non-members. They are entitled each year to one extra-mural 

 lecture free, by a lecturer chosen from the Garden's list of lecturers.
