The roster lives on the secretary's laptop. Dues come in by check and get tracked in someone's notebook. The website hasn't been updated since the last webmaster moved away. Member info is scattered across five email chains. Every time officers change, half the institutional knowledge walks out the door.
It doesn't have to work this way. Here's what works instead.
Your member database in one place — names, addresses, member status, dues history, and any custom fields your club needs to track. Filter and segment by anything. Track applications, renewals, and lapsed members automatically. When officers turn over, the data stays put.
Every member gets their own login. They update their contact info, see their dues status, and keep their profile current — including any custom fields you've added for your club's specific needs. Your secretary stops being the human update system. Your roster stays current without anyone chasing it.
Every club is different. Add the custom member fields your club actually needs — membership levels, volunteer and docent roles, research interests, committee assignments, family lines being researched, anything. The platform adapts to your data, not the other way around.
Modern, mobile-friendly, and easy to update — even if no one on your board does HTML. Post your program schedule, exhibit and open-house dates, and research requests, share news and upcoming events, without filing a ticket. Your website actually reflects your club.
Clubistry was built with the diversity of clubs in mind. Every club tracks something different — your club might need dues paid status, membership level, volunteer and docent roles, committee assignments, research interests, or anything else that matters to how you operate. Add the fields you need. Skip the ones you don't.
Your bylaws were probably written in 1973 and have specific rules about how dues are reported. Your treasurer wants a print-ready list of dues-paid members before the annual meeting. Your program dates and open-house details need to be on the website by a certain date or the members will be unhappy. We know how clubs actually run.
The platform flexes to fit how your club operates — not the other way around.

We put the whole picture in one place, so everyone weighing in sees the same thing. It covers what Clubistry does, what it costs, what changes for your club and your members, and the questions that usually come up before approving new software.
