Membership
T-BART accepts new members throughout the year.
If you are interested in joining T-BART in providing a valuable service to boaters on Tellico Lake, complete the application below. You can join as a captain or as crew but our recommendation based on experience is that all new members join as crew which allows you to become familiar with T-BART procedures as well as Tellico Lake. If are interested in becoming a Captain after serving as crew you can opt to complete the additional captain training.
