I saw that the year ran from July - June. I was just wondering if I joined now would I be required to re-up then.

Sure I could call and ask, but why do that and miss snarky responses.

Usually you have to pay sometime before the first event in early August.

I joined 3 years ago at the bash (Feb 2011) I did not pay again until Aug 2012.

Since they are trying to increase membership, I think that if you join now you will get into the VIP section of the bash this year and all of the events for the 2014 football season and not have to reup into June-Aug 2015.

$350 year

According to the rant I think you get Taf priority points at the standard rate

In addition you get tshirt and cap

Bigger donations have nicer rewards.

I hope their is a newsletter being that I will be long distance

Not sure why you are having trouble. All you have to do is go to LINK and fill out app.

Or go to the bash I am sure they will be taking new members there. Anyone can join its not restricted.

Lowest level of membership is $350 a year. Other levels available get you more "perks". You get a shirt and a hat as someone else stated.

There are luncheons on Fridays before every home game at Drusilla Seafood. Good Food. A salad, main entree , dessert and a water/tea. Doors open at 11 am with guest speakers starting at 11:30. Miles shows up for 12:30 and talks and answers questions for about 30 minutes. Its over by 1pm.

Other events include:

Meet the Freshmen. Miles talks about all the new guys and then every freshmen comes in and introduces themselves. Then you get to watch a fall practice in the football ops center. Its usually just the new guys and a few select vets.

You get to see a fall scrimmage (usually 2 weeks before 1st game) in Stadium Club in Tiger Stadium.

You get to watch a bowl practice at football ops.

You get into the bash for free.

You get to go to a spring scrimmage (usually the week before the spring game) in Stadium Club in Tiger Stadium.

You do get TAF points for your "donation".

They also have road trip packages and a golf weekend at Beau Rivage. Those are eextra if you want to attend them.

Those gridiron members are serious

I am in Silver level also. I have enjoyed my 3 years in the club. When you consider the meals and getting in free to the bash its not a bad deal. The informal setting with Miles is what makes it really nice. Welcome to the club. Don't hold your breath on that decoder ring.

My guess would be you would have to re-up in the fall when new season starts. First event is usually in August with meet the freshman and watch practice

I hope not but in all honesty odds are I won't make it down from NJ. Maybe once hopefully.
