Although we are an ARRL affiliated club that requires a certain club membership percentage to also be ARRL members, ARRL membership is not a requirement to join the Cowtown Amateur Radio Club.
If you join/renew your ARRL membership through the Cowtown Amateur Radio Club the club will receive back from ARRL a portion of your ARRL application fee, and that helps with club activities.
