Volunteer Fees: Deposit/Buyout (applies only to tackle football)

This year we will be offering parents the option to "buyout" the volunteer hours.  The volunteer deposit for the 2011 season is $150 (4 hours per family required) or you may choose not to volunteer and pay $100 at the time of registration (no hours required).

How it works:

If you do not want to volunteer in the 2011 during the registration process you will choose the option to "buyout" your hours.  At the end of the registration the $100 fee will be added on.  This option can only be done at the time of registration.

If you decide to volunteer you will be required to complete 4 volunteer hours per family in order to have your volunteer deposit returned/destroyed at the end of the season.  Example: If you have four players registered you will be required to complete four volunteer hours.  If you have one player you will be required to complete four volunteer hours.

*If you choose the option to volunteer and pay the deposit but you do not complete the required hours (4 hours per family) you will then forfeit the $150 deposit.

**PLEASE consider your options carefully**

New Volunteer System – Dibs!

We are now utilizing the new DIBS system to run our volunteer opportunities. You DO NOT need a separate Dibs account to select volunteer hours this season -- your Dibs account is tied directly to your registration.

You will receive a verification email after submitting your account request. You must click on the link provided in the email in order for your account to become "active".  Then you go can get into the Dibs system and register for volunteer hours.
