Membership Tiers

Belonging Matters More Than Access

Right now, membership is completely free. Our long-term goal is to keep it that way for as long as possible, and even in the future, we aim to stay under $5 a month—just enough to cover basic costs. Access isn't the point; the real value is being part of a community of great people who actually notice when you’re here and truly miss you when you’re gone.

Free Membership

$0

Full access to our gatherings, hub spaces, and community pillars. No strings attached, just show up and belong.

Founder Story

Meet the Founder

Gary Schreib · St. Petersburg, Florida

I started The 3rd Place because I felt the world needs a place where adults can form relationships that really matter. In a fast-paced world, we often lose sight of the connections that ground us.

I believe true wealth is simply the people who know you and miss you when you’re gone. It’s about building a legacy of belonging and mutual support that extends beyond our individual lives.

I’m looking forward to helping others get together and join a club where they truly belong. We are building this for you, for us, and for the community we all deserve.
