CLUB MEMBERSHIP REQUEST
Our club is much like a co-op. Club membership fees are very inexpensive because we ask our club members to participate in track maintenance, weekend public sliding, fundraisers, and other club activities. Without the help of our club members, there would not be an Upper Peninsula Luge Club.
We are not here for profit. All funds that are brought in are put directly back into our Luge Club. Some money comes from membership dues, and donations from kind individuals and businesses, but much of our funding comes from holding public sliding on the weekends, and from fundraisers the club members do. So, as you can see, the participation of our club members is essential to our club’s success.
Participating is fun, not intimidating. Most people have never seen a natural luge track before. We understand that. So we are here to teach you everything you need to know; from learning how to slide, to how to dress appropriately for sliding, to building and maintaining the track (and it’s fun too!). So, as a member, please consider participating as frequently as you can. Along with building a luge track, you could find yourself building friendships too.

Safety is an important part of the international rules of luge. Regulations address areas such as track design, track inspections, medical arrangements, and athlete's equipment.
In 1991, the engineering consultants for the track's 36,000 watt lighting system received an international "Illuminations Design Award".
