How the Membership Works

- Get a $60 Race CreditYou'll receive a $60 credit to use on your first swim. This covers almost 100% of the entry fee for some of our shorter distances! Planning a longer swim? No problem. The $60 applies to any distance, you simply pay the difference.
- Enjoy VIP StatusThe remaining value of your membership pays for itself in peace of mind and perks. You get to skip the package pickup lines, get 15% discount on more swims and merch, access sold out distances, and transfer your registration for free if life gets in the way.
What's Included?
$60 Annual Swim Credit Valid for any Across the Lake Swim event. Use it for a standard distance, put it toward a longer swim, or use it for a bucket list destination swim. If your swim costs more than $60, you just pay the difference.
Priority Package Pickup Your time is valuable. Forget the long lineups on race day. Lake Club members have their own dedicated “Fast Lane” for package pickup at every single event. Show up, grab your race package, and get to the start.
Unlimited Free Transfers Life happens. Shoulders get sore, schedules change. If you can’t make a race, transfer your entry to a friend or to a different event for free. (Non-members pay $20 per transfer). This is built-in peace of mind.
15% Off All Additional Swims Planning a big season? After you use your $60 credit, you get 15% off every other registration for the rest of the year. The more you swim, the more you save.

Got Questions?
We've Got Answers
How does the $60 swim credit work?
After purchasing your membership, you will receive a unique code for the $60 credit. You can apply this code during registration for any upcoming event.
What if my swim costs more than $60?
You simply pay the difference! If your registration is $80, you apply your $60 credit and pay the remaining $20.
Does the 15% discount apply to my first swim?
No, you use your $60 credit for your first swim. The 15% discount applies to every swim after you have used your credit.
I only do one swim per year. Is Lake Club worth it?
Yes! You pay $99 and get $60 in credit. You save $60 immediately, plus you get to skip the package pickup line, have free transfers and be a part of our community. It’s a no-brainer.
How does guaranteed entry work if an event is sold out?
We reserve a specific number of spots in each event exclusively for Lake Club members. Even after public registration closes, members can still register until those reserved spots are filled.
What if I need to transfer more than once?
No problem! Members have unlimited transfers. Transfer as many times as you need throughout the year at no charge.
Can I upgrade my current registration to a membership?
Please contact us! We’d love to help you get set up in the club.
When does my membership expire?
Memberships are valid for 12 months from purchase date. You’ll receive a renewal reminder before expiration.

- Expiration & No Rollover: The $60 Swim Credit and all membership benefits are valid for 12 months from the date of purchase. Unused credits or benefits do not roll over to the following year and will expire if not redeemed within the membership term.
- No Cash Value: The $60 Swim Credit has no cash surrender value. If a registered event costs less than $60, the remaining balance is forfeited and cannot be carried forward to a future purchase.
- Membership Non-Refundable: The Lake Club annual membership fee is non-refundable once purchased.
- Individual Use Only: This membership is non-transferable. Benefits, including the 15% discount, Priority Package Pickup, and the Swim Credit, are exclusively for the registered Lake Club member and cannot be shared with family members or friends.
- Retroactive Discounts: Member discounts and Swim Credit must be applied at the time of registration. We cannot apply discounts or vouchers retroactively to registrations purchased prior to joining The Lake Club or if the code was not entered during checkout.
- Guaranteed Entry Policy: “Guaranteed Entry” to sold out events is subject to a reserved capacity block. While we reserve spots for members, these are available on a first-come, first-served basis within the member block. We recommend registering early to ensure your spot.
- Free Transfer Policy: The “Unlimited Free Transfers” benefit waives the standard administrative transfer fee (typically $20). However, if transferring to a more expensive event or distance, the member is responsible for paying the difference in registration cost.
- Code Stacking: The $60 Swim Credit cannot be combined with the 15% member discount or other promotional codes on a single registration. The credit is intended for your first swim, and the 15% discount applies to subsequent swims.
