Membership

We invite everyone aged 50 and over, as well as spouses of age-eligible members, to join our exciting center! Your annual membership entitles you to receive our monthly Courier as well as have access to a variety of programs and classes geared towards fun and enrichment. Some programs and classes require additional participation fees, though most offer discounts for members. If members will be living somewhere other than their main address for several months, just give us a call and we'll make sure your Courier arrives where ever you are!

Para informacion en espanol sobre Evergreen Commons, sus programas y la membresia, favor de llamar a Becky Gezon al 616-355-5103.

Our Member/Guest Services Desk is the place to go for information, to register for classes, and sign up for dinners or day trips. Some of our programs require an Evergreen Commons membership but many of our activities are available to nonmembers too.

We appreciate it when you sign in at the Front Desk or at the podium by the pool tables every time you arrive at Evergreen so we are better able to report center usage as required by various agencies.

Membership Referral Incentive: When an Evergreen member refers someone to join as a new member, the referring member will receive a meal ticket for a Free Lunch at Evergreen Commons! As an extra incentive, we will track the numbers of new members from the referral of a current member. In July of every year, awards will be presented to the three members who recruit the most new members in a year.

Program Advisory Council (PAC): These Evergreen Commons members have been elected to represent the membership in all areas, including program evaluation and the generation of new ideas. We sincerely appreciate all their efforts!
