HOW TO BECOME A MEMBER
The only requirements to become a member of the Indianapolis Hiking Club are that you are at least 18 years of age and have hiked with the Club on two occasions as a guest.
That's it. You do not have to be invited by a member to hike with the
Club as a guest. Simply show up at any scheduled hike. After you
complete your second hike you are eligible to join.
Click the following link to view and print a copy of the application form. Many hike leaders will also have application forms
or feel free to contact our Membership Officer. Complete the form and mail to the address listed on the form along with a check made payable to the Indianapolis Hiking Club.
Our membership fees are very modest (see application form for details)
and are mainly used to cover the cost of printing and mailing the
bi-monthly hike schedule.
We offer individual and family memberships, which include two or more adults
living at the same residence.
New members are approved at board meetings, usually held
on the third Thursday of each month. You will be notified when you
are accepted into the Club. Until that time you are welcome to hike
as a guest as often as you wish. However, mileage does not begin to
accumulate until you officially become a member.
If you were previously a member of the Club, but
have been inactive (i.e., non-dues paying for a year or more), you
may be reinstated and your mileage will pick up again from where
you left off.
