Members and staff are invited to use this site as a tool in better using their club. Much content is available without logging in, but some requires you to sign in and follow certain procedures.
In general, reserving for events can be done with just your name and membership number. Similarly, you can log in with your name and number and then check your bill, use the directory, or even check your reservations.
You can also post to the forum.
Members normally get an account created within the month after the webmaster is notified of membership. If you are eager, and who isn't, drop a line to webmaster@cyc.org and we'll hook you up sooner.
