If the guest chooses to purchase temporary membership cards, the guest is charged the fees, as shown below: Adults (26+): $175 per adult, per day Children Under 26: $60 per child per day.

Example: A Family of 4 with 2 adults and 2 children under 26 will be charged the following on a daily basis for the days that they opt to purchase temp member cards: $175 per adult, per day and nothing for their 2 children, so their total would be $350 per day.
