VOC membership info for 2025! Please read

Hello VOC Meetup members & site users,

The following are a few notes about the 2025 outdoors season!
*Membership fees: $25 for the whole year starting Jan. 1st. We are encouraging e-transfers to our address at victoriaoutdoorclub@gmail.com**. When you pay your membership fee, please do the following:
-make sure your meetup profile name is the same first name, ideally with a last initial, so I can match the bank account with the individual (you can pay your membership fees any time, and we will monitor our email address and add 2025 members as payments come in). This is the lowest possible fee we can charge members and still pay our bills (Meetup and FMCBC).
*On request, we will send a printable membership card to those who'd like one.
*Drop in fees - still $2 (pay in person at events)
*Waiver - in person waiver is signed once per year in 2025
*Emergency contact form at events will remain the same.
*2 no shows per person per year only.** What this means is that if you do not contact the event host to say you can't attend, or you don't remove yourself in advance from attendance at an event, then you will be removed from the club temporarily. We will not personally re-add people with more than two no-shows, but people with more than 2 no shows will have the opportunity to re-register for the club themselves. Please show respect to our volunteer hosts with a note if you can't come.
