Kruisin’ members that want the ability to reserve private barn use time without attending training classes may pay a "Barn Use Fee" as an alternative to a "Training Fee" for each 6-month period: active member barn use fee = $300, senior member barn use fee = $250.
In order for a Kruisin' member to be able to reserve private barn use time, the member must (1) have had a dog at the master level OR (2) complete Kruisin' Kanines Beginner Agility level class OR (3) have prior approval of Training Director.
Associate membership is available for those who fail to meet member requirements or for those wishing for more of a "social" membership - $75 annual member dues will apply. Associate members will receive the club newsletter and can participate in Sunday run-throughs and club events, but do not receive class discounts and may not make a barn reservation.
