Club Info

Since 1890, the Arid Club has been Boise’s premier private social club, uniting the city’s finest professionals.

“The Arid Club isn’t about status or forced networking—it’s about access and trust. Members join because it’s one of the few places where smart, driven people can speak openly, build relationships naturally, and actually enjoy the time they spend doing it. The value shows up in unexpected ways: advice that saves months of effort, introductions that matter, and a reliable circle you can lean on when it counts. If you’re selective about where you invest your time and money, the Arid Club earns its place by consistently delivering meaningful connections—not just promises.

The Arid Club is where meaningful connections happen naturally. It’s a private community built on discretion, trust, and shared ambition—where casual conversations spark partnerships, investments, and lifelong friendships. More than exclusive amenities or events, the real value lies in belonging: a supportive network that feels like a second family. In a world dominated by digital noise, the Arid Club brings business and community back to what truly works—face-to-face connection in a space designed for opportunity.”

-DAVID KNICKREHM, GENERAL MANAGER

“I have been a member of the Arid Club for 45+ years and Club Nights remain high on the list for wonderful camaraderie with members and guests; excellent beverages and good food also help. These nights are a great way to meet people and learn about what goes on.”
