| Registration Days are Coming *** NEW *** |
|
|
Our annual registration days will be held at the Cloverdale Ball Park Clubhouse (17333 - 61A Avenue) on Saturday January 10th & Sunday January 11th from 10:00am - 2:00pm.
However, we are now also accepting 2009 early registration by mail.
|
|
|
A change for this year is that when it comes to doing volunteer duty you now have a choice.
At registration time, you can include a $100 "Volunteer Duty Deposit Cheque"
(which gets torn up once you complete a volunteer shift in the concession, take a coaching position, or take another volunteer position that qualifies as fulfilling the volunteer obligation),
or you can "opt out" of doing volunteer duty by including a $60 "Volunteer Duty Opt-Out Cheque" (dated the same as your registration cheque).
The money from the opt out cheques will allow us to hire people to fill concession shift when we are short of volunteer workers.
The $100 deposit cheques, for those who did not fulfill their volunteer duty, will now be cashed the day before the AGM in June.
