Application process

How does this work? It’s easy!

  1. Submit your application (click the correct button below for either a family or single membership).
  2. There is a $25 non-refundable application fee. The fee is applied as a payment toward your first dues invoice. Should you apply but decline to become a member, the application fee is non-refundable and forfeited at the time you decline membership.
  3. If you indicate on your application that you have an FST Member sponsoring you, we will reach out to them for a referral letter on your behalf.
  4. Family applications are placed on our waitlist. Single applications are reviewed and processed upon receipt.
  5. Your application and referral letter (if applicable) will be reviewed by our Membership Committee.
    • Please note that family applications are typically reviewed in batches of 10 as spots become available in our membership (our Bylaws limit us to 290 total family memberships per year). 
    • Upon submitting your family application, you will receive an email containing a link to see your current status on our waitlist. Historically, the longest time spent on our waitlist is 10 months (eg, an application submitted in July with a spot opening up by the following May).
  6. Single applications are invoiced upon approval by the Membership Committee. Approved family applications remain on our waitlist and are invoiced when a spot becomes available. Denied applications will be notified by email.
