Two ways to belong

Brotherhood and Social

Brotherhood Member

Earned · interview, evaluation, induction

Brotherhood Members run the club. They vote on governance, operate the space, and do BDC's service work in the community.

Social Member

Apply online · board approval

Social Members come to play and be part of the community. You get access to the space and events, with no role in governance or operations.

Social Members can always pursue the Brotherhood path through the interview and evaluation process.
