dues are lower than Adult Membership . Members are granted voting rights.
Out of State ($100): These are Adult Members who want to participate in the spring/fall hunts,
but due to geographical or work concerns cannot attend the IMDA monthly meetings. Typically,
these will be out-of-state members or members whose job requires extensive travel. Because
these members will not be contributing to IMDA through monthly raffles, bake sales, etc., annual
dues will be higher than that of a Regular Membership. Members are not granted voting rights.
Lifetime ($0): This title is bestowed upon an Adult Member through unanimous vote of the IMDA
Board for outstanding service to IMDA. It is a lifetime distinction during which time the annual
dues assessment is waived. Lifetime Members retain their Adult Member classification.

CLUB HUNTS
As a paid member, you will have exclusive access to our IMDA sponsored hunts (not open to the public) See eligibility rules below.
Note to all IMDA club attendees!
*unless you are a new member*
As stated in our last club meeting, for you to attend our club member hunts in May and September (not the Chicago Dig Fest hunt) you physically have to be present at least 2 meetings if you have not attended Jan. or Feb. you must be present at March & April that will constitute “a member in good standing.” (Meaning- your dues must be paid and you attend the required meetings before each hunt. Any late fees will be applied up to that month.) Other club events include our club member's picnic, Christmas party, and any club outings you’ll miss out on.
This Sunday's meeting January 26th is the last opportunity you have to get Membership squared away. You don’t pay, you don’t play. Period.
Late fees of $5:00 a month will accumulate til our last meeting in November.
