You can just pay it on the day to the Information Officers upon entry. Otherwise, the fee is $17 per vehicle. Please note that a strict no pets policy is enforced BYO food drinks, chairs etc. There are BBQ’s on site, but the Club will also be taking our one and only Saabbq for those who prefer the cordon bleu experience.
