Apply for Membership

about us

The Young Americans Club, or YAMC for short, is the foremost and the most important community for North American expats and diaspora living in Austria and its EU neighbors. While anyone who speaks English proficiently can apply for and become a member, only those of American heritage qualify for sitting on the Executive Committee Board of Directors (ExCommBoD). If you wish to apply for regular membership, you must speak English proficiently.

In order to become an officer and sit on the Board of Directors, you you MUST either be a citizen of an American country, or have lived in an American nation for more than one year. Each application will be reviewed individually.
 
Our goal and sole aim is to provide community and company to American expats and diaspora living far away from home and to help them navigate life easier in Europe, as well as fostering inclusion of our Austrian counterparts by providing them with a cultural bridge into America. We organize weekend escapes and getaways, hiking trips, skiing and snowshoeing trips, backpacking, scuba diving and skydiving 
excursions, pool parties, barbecues, weekly boulder meets, rock climbing, many-day hiking tours, a weekly creative writing writer's circle, back-country and cross-country skiing as well as our annual Summerwhite festival which is Europe's smallest and most exclusive music festival in a 900 year-old Austrian (Styrian) castle.   
Membership costs 20 Euros per year for those residing in Austria and its neighboring countries, and 5 Euros per year for people residing in all other countries. It includes access to member-only events, as well as an all-paid-for, all-inclusive yearly day (or weekend) trip for all paying members who have volunteered at a YAMC event at least once per calendar year.  

JOIN US
Membership is open to anyone who speaks English proficiently, understands the cultural intricacies of the American continent, is aligned and in-sync with our group and our collective outlook.
