- Lifetime Memberships are a way for the Swedish Cultural Center to
provide an enhanced benefit for its faithful supporters, while bringing
in much-needed funds. Becoming a Lifetime Member means you’ve gone all
in to support the club—and you’ll never have to worry again about dues
deadlines or rising membership rates.
Currently the club has about 100 Lifetime Members. We haven’t offered
this opportunity in a long time—but as of November 2011, we have a limited
number of Lifetime Memberships available, for $2,000 each or $2,500
for a couple.
