All the club gliders are hired at a flat rate of $42.50 per hour (charged by the minute) free after four hours. Private gliders are not cross-hired. Bulk flying is $637.50 up front then $10.65/hr for unlimited hours, also capped at 4 hours per flight.

Instruction is free - you only pay for the launch and glider hire.
