Rates
The Viking Sailing Club is a co-operative-style not-profit society and entirely volunteer run, which is why our rates are some of the best at Jericho. Members are expected to volunteer in club operations and fleet upkeep.
The Vikings take care of your JSCA fees as well, which is why they are included below in your total due.

Applying
To apply, fill in the application form and send to our membership officer, together with a cheque for the appropriate amount. If membership is full your uncashed cheque will be returned and you will be added to the waiting list. Our membership roster usually fills early in the season.
All information on payment, waiver, and where to send your application are on the membership form.
You can also download our 2012 brochure.
Membership Cap
To ensure members excellent access to sailing opportunities, we limit the number of members. Present members and associates have priority over the waiting list until the end of February, at which time we accept new members. Once the club is full, interested applicants are added to our waiting list for the opportunity to join the following year or earlier should someone cancel.
Contact
If you have any questions please feel free to contact our membership officer. If you like you can also arrange a meeting at our club room at the Jericho Sailing Centre (view our club room location) to check out our boats and the club room for yourself.
