Membership at MAR
Thinking About Membership?
Mountain Air Ranch welcomes Colorado residents to experience the community before deciding whether membership is right for them. You may begin the membership process as early as your first visit — you do not need to wait until your third visit.
The introductory period
Your First Three Visits
Visit 2
The daily grounds fee is waived. Keep exploring, meet members, attend an activity, and continue or start the membership process.
Visit 3
Another chance to experience MAR before deciding. If you haven’t already applied, this is a natural time to begin.
You do not have to wait until your third visit to apply.
If you’re approved for membership, paid introductory grounds fees may be applied toward your membership dues. Exact payment and credit handling will be confirmed against MAR’s current office procedures.

What happens after my third visit?
Colorado residents are expected to begin the membership process if they want to continue visiting regularly.
If you’ve started your membership application, you may continue visiting while completing the signature and approval process under MAR’s applicable visitor/member-candidate rules.
The process
How Membership Works
1Start Your Application. You may begin as early as your first visit.
2Meet the Membership Committee. Applicants collect five signatures from Membership Committee members.
3Attend a Membership Mixer. Want to complete your signatures in one visit? MAR periodically holds Membership Mixers where enough Membership Committee members are present to potentially collect all five signatures at once.
4Committee Review. Once your application and signatures are complete, the Membership Committee reviews it at a subsequent meeting.
5Approval. Once approved, membership becomes active. Meeting timing can mean the process takes several weeks — approval is typically routine for a good fit, but it isn’t automatic.
Why people stay
The amenities get you here. The community brings you back.
Come back without starting over
Membership turns MAR from a place you tried into a place you can make part of your routine.
Be part of the calendar
Members shape dinners, dances, pool events, family activities, work days and the social life of the ranch.
Stay connected
The value is not just access to amenities. It is knowing people when you arrive and having a community to return to.
Get involved
As you settle in, there are opportunities to get more involved with committees and club life.

What is ChexPass?
A screening program MAR uses for new visitors as part of registration. After your initial conversation with the MAR office, staff will send you a secure ChexPass link so you can complete it from home before your visit. You’ll need your cell phone and a physical, valid photo ID. ChexPass is a screening step — it does not replace MAR’s own admission or membership requirements.
