Click Here to download a PDF version  of the Rules & Regulations

 

These Rules & Regulations ("Rules") intend to provide the maximum use and enjoyment of the Club by the members and their guests. We believe they constitute the best solution to the many complex issues and concerns associated with a club operation as large and active as ours.

The obligation to enforce these Rules lies primarily in the hands of the ISHC management whose principal responsibility is to assure members of all the courtesies, comforts and services that we provide. It is also the duty of the members to know the Rules and to cooperate with ISHC management in their enforcement.

The Rules may be revised, amended, supplemented, modified or repealed by ISHC management at any time, and without prior notice. In addition, ISHC management will have any number of operating policies and procedures necessary for the overall efficient and effective management of the Club. Violation of the Rules of the Club may result in a reprimand, suspension or expulsion. The Club shall have the unqualified right to make such Rules, as it deems necessary or appropriate. The Rules shall be available to members upon request.

ANIMALS

Animals (with the exception of seeing-eye and medical dogs) are not permitted in the Club.

Each applicant for membership in the Club shall submit a completed Membership Application with correct information on a form prescribed by ISHC together with the applicable fees. Make all payments at the front desk, and get a receipt.

Payment of Dues AND Delinquency Charges

The Club utilizes a direct debit system against members' major credit cards or checking/savings accounts (for a monthly billing membership). Members must provide the Club with a current major credit card account or checking/savings account information for direct debit of dues. Members must inform ISHC of any changes in their direct debit account that might affect prompt payment. Failure to pay the Club on time may result in suspension of membership privileges and termination of membership.

 

The Holder is financially responsible for all other members on the membership, including returned checks or declined credit card charges. All balances will be drafted each month through EFT.

 

In order to offset the cost of follow-up and to encourage repeat offenders to comply with payment terms, the maximum lawful interest fees will be added to any delinquent amount not received by the Club until such delinquent amount is paid in full.

 

If a credit card or direct debit from a checking/savings account is declined, the member will be notified by mail and will have seven calendar days in which to make payment in full, including applicable penalties. If the member's account is still unpaid at the end of that period, Club privileges will be suspended and the membership will be subject to termination.

 

If an account is delinquent, the Club may take whatever action it deems necessary to effect collection. If the Club commences any legal action to collect any initiation fees, membership dues or other indebtedness owed by any member of the Club or to enforce any liability of such member to the Club, and if judgment is obtained by the Club, such member shall also be liable for all costs and expenses of such legal action, including reasonable attorneys' fees.
