The OFSC uses a volunteer credit program in
order to help defray the cost of our expenditures and to
maintain the quality of our program.
We genuinely appreciate the time and work so many parents
and members contribute to the Olds Figure Skating Club.
We have a loyal and dedicated core of families, who serve
on the Executive, coordinate our test sessions, Fundraise, and
plan and execute our skating events.
For the 2007/2008-year, we are formalizing a volunteer
commitment for every family that is a member of the Olds Figure
Skating Club.
The amount of volunteer commitment varies
depending on the program. Please refer to each program above for
volunteer commitment details.
For families more than one family member in OFSC,
full volunteer commitment is only required for the skater with
the highest program cost.
This year OFSC has the following options
available for fulfilling volunteer commitments:
-
Payout full amount of fundraising
requirement.
-
Sign up for a variety of club events,
fundraising activities, and executive positions.
-
Sign up for a Casino shift on September 18 or 19, 2007
(1 shift = 10 volunteer commitment hours)
(Refer to OFSC Volunteer Credit Program Form for a
detailed list)
A bond cheque dated May 1/08 is required
for volunteer commitments at an amount of $10/volunteer hour.
When you fulfill your volunteer commitments, the bond
cheque will be destroyed.
We require volunteer hours for fundraising
and to coordinate special events throughout the skating season.
To keep costs as low as possible fundraising is a
necessary reality. Program fees cover~ 50% of the actual cost.
Special events give the skaters a chance to celebrate
their accomplishments ( ie. Halloween skate party & Christmas
party) and chances to perform what they’ve learned (ie. Talent
Night and Carnival).
Without the help from volunteers, we would not be able to hold
these events.
Volunteer Commitment Accounts
OFSC members can build up additional funds in their Volunteer
Commitment account to help offset ice and program costs. Skaters
may accumulate and carry forward a balance in their fundraising
account from year to year in excess of their annual required
Volunteer Commitment. Skaters with funds in their accounts above
their required amount, may use these funds to offset costs of
club expenses such as program fees, ice fees, test fees and
group costume/apparel orders. Skaters who leave OFSC with a
balance in their Volunteer account will not receive these funds
as a payout, these funds will go to general OFSC operation
funds.
