BENEFITS of SBPOA MEMBERSHIP

The SBPOA Clubhouse

Our Great Shorefront

Membership provides for a discounted rental rate for our clubhouse facilities for your private parties. Make sure you click on the clubhouse tab to learn of all the amenities at the clubhouse.

Our Great Shorefront

Membership includes 5 tags which are your credentials to access the beautiful 1-1/4-mile Long Island Sound shoreline using the SBPOA East or West Beach Stairs. Stair access is membership-only year round.

Kayak Racks

Members can secure a spot on the racks for their kayaks, canoes, and paddle boards on our West Beach bulkhead. Storage racks are for members only on a first-come, first-served basis as space allows. One space comes free with membership, the second (based on availability) incurs a $25 fee.

A kayak rack application must be submitted before a spot will be assigned.

If you are interested in a place on the rack, contact Desiree Nigro at sbkayaks@gmail.com. Kayaks and other watercraft must be removed from the racks at the end of the season no later than October 1.

Kayak Racks

The SBPOA is an organization entrusted with the care and maintenance of the beach access, parkland and our clubhouse.

Membership gives you easy beach access for your family and out-of-town visitors. We have roped off swimming areas at two beaches with lifeguards during the summer season. Benches at the top of the SBPOA stairs are prime viewing spots for spectacular sunsets. Our parklands and staircases to the beach belong to this private community-based organization that was established in 1929.

The facilities of SBPOA are maintained only through membership dues. Therefore only members and non-resident guests are permitted to use them.

RESIDENTS OF SOUND BEACH WHO CHOOSE NOT TO BE MEMBERS CANNOT BE GUESTS ON YOUR TAGS.

We welcome new and renewing members from our local area.
