NJAA membership is open to everyone. For adults, the dues are $30 per year for Regular Membership, and $40 for a Sustaining Membership (Students are $15, and family members of a Regular or Sustaining member are $5 each), There is a one time application fee of $10. A Sustaining Membership affords the same rewards of a regular membership, however it donates a little more money towards the maintenance of the observatory.

Use of the NJAA grounds any time you like
