IN LIEU OF CHEQUES 2023/2024
posted Aug 29, 2023, 8:29 AM
This year we are trying some different approaches to better serve our club members. We understand that cheques are becoming a thing of the past and can be costly. We are providing an alternative to submitting a cheque by allowing members to agree to a post dated credit card charge. Upon completion of volunteer and fundraising requirements, charge will be cancelled. Cheques will still be accepted if preferred.
If you prefer a post dated credit card charge:
- This MUST be added on its own invoice.
- After you have completed your registration and paid. Start a new invoice by going back to your shopping cart.
- Select "Purchase Subscription".
- Choose "Pay by installments"
- Post dated transaction should appear. Date will be April 30, 2024.
- Confirm payment method and complete.
If you cancel the charge and have not completed your volunteer and fundraising requirements, you will not be allowed to register with PDSC in the future without paying the $200.
If you run into any issues, please reach out to the club for assistance.

VOLUNTEER AND FUNDRAISING REQUIREMENTS
posted Aug 29, 2023, 8:28 AM
There are lots of changes being made to PDSC this year. Due to the increasing cost of living and our desire to keep our club as affordable as possible for members, we are implementing fundraising in lieu of ticket sales. We are asking that each family completes fundraising to a minimum of $100 total kickback to the club in order for requirement to be met. As the season gets going, we will be providing more information on fundraising. We appreciate that, with any change, there will be lots of questions/concerns and encourage you to reach out The Board. We are here to help!
In addition to fundraising, the volunteer requirement is 4 hours (no change). The Board is trying their best to streamline the sign up process by incorporating it into our registration process. You can now browse through volunteer positions and sign up at the same time as registration. If you do not see a position that fits your schedule, don't panic, we will be adding positions as they become available. This is a very time consuming job for us, please be patient.
