Volunteer Participation

The RPFSC Board has restructured the requirements for volunteer hours.  As you know, RPFSC is a parent-run Club.  We hire professional coaches but all club operations are carried out by parent volunteers.  Everything from registration, accounting, shows and test days are run by parent volunteers.  The more people involved, the more we are able to do and the smoother things will run.

 In the past we asked for a volunteer deposit cheque from families of all skaters which was only cashed if parents did not volunteer.  This year we are waiving the deposit cheque for parents of CanSkaters and asking that these parents consider volunteering up to 4 hours of time over the year.  We wanted to recognize that often parents of CanSkaters also have toddlers or babies and that it is often difficult to volunteer on lesson days with younger children in tow!

 Parents of all other skaters are asked to do 6 hours (StarSkate I) or 6-8 hours (StarSkate II and Senior Skaters).  Families with skaters in these groups will be required to submit a postdated cheque for $50 which will only be cashed if parents do not volunteer.  The progressive volunteer requirements reflect the increased amount of commitment on the part of the skaters as well as the increased commitment on behalf of the Club to the skater. 

 Summary of Parent Volunteer requirements:

  •  Parents of CanSkaters:               4 hours suggested  (no cheque required)
  • Parents of StarSkater I skaters:   6 hours  ($50 deposit cheque required)
  • Parents of StarSkate II skaters:   6-8 hours  ($50 deposit cheque required)*
  • Parents of Senior skaters:           6-8 hours ($50 deposit cheque required)*

 * Skaters who volunteer as Junior Programme Assistants may put their hours towards their family's volunteer hours.

 A sign up list for  volunteer jobs will be available at all registration sessions and during lessons.  Parents will be asked to submit a record of their volunteer hours/job(s) to verify hours volunteered.

 Volunteer Opportunities:

 1. RPFSC would like to have a "swap meet" on Saturday, September 20th from 9:00 am to noon.  We are looking for 2-3 volunteers to organize this event and recruit volunteers to help.  If you want to knock off some of your hours (or maybe all!!), please respond to this e-mail.

 2. This year's Year End Show needs an organizing committee.  We have a few people who volunteered last spring but we are still in need of a few more.  If you are interested please respond to this e-mail and your name will be forwarded to our Co-ordinator for the show, Patti Malone.
