                  Volunteer Requirements


                  The Steveston Judo Club is a non-profit organization operated

                  entirely by volunteers including its coaches, instructors and executive

                  members. Class fees are kept to a minimum with the expectation that members

                  and their families support the club through a commitment of

                  volunteered time.


                  As well as club events such as tournaments, volunteers are needed for Steveston Community Centre Events like the Steveston Farmers Market and The Steveston Salmon Festival.


                  For this season, you will be required to submit either $500.00 cash OR three volunteer deposit

                  cheques (two for $200 and one for $100 for a combined $500 total)

                  made out to Steveston Judo Club, and dated August 31 2024. These volunteer

                  cheques are kept until the end of the judo season. All deposit volunteer cheques/cash

                   will be returned at the end of the season if the judoka family has met their volunteer

                  commitment of time. Cheques/cash will not be returned (and are subsequently cashed) for

                  those families who do not meet the requirement. It is important to

                  note that the goal of the club is to have volunteers rather than funds

                  from cash or volunteer cheques. There are many opportunities throughout

                  the judo season to volunteer.  Please note that there are age requirements

                  for many of the volunteer events as well as job requirement information. These

                  are put in place for a variety of reasons, including safety.


                  E-mails are sent out in advance of approaching volunteer

                  opportunities with the instructions on how to sign-up. Currently the

                  club is using an on-line sign-up program. Reminder e-mails of the

                  task you have signed-up for are sent 2-3 days before the event.

                  Each volunteer event is given a “credit” amount. This amount varies

                  depending on the volunteer task. By the end of the season, your family is

                  required to complete 20 credits.


                  It is important that you ensure that you receive credit for each

                  volunteer task that you are at. A sign-in sheet will be at each

                  event for you to sign upon arrival. You will not receive credit unless

                  this sheet has been signed, so please ensure that you inquire about

                  the sheet when you go to volunteer at an event. A list of all credited volunteer

                  time will be kept by the club’s Volunteer Coordinator and made available

                  upon request to the volunteer.


                  At August 31 2024, partial credit will be given for those families who volunteered their

                  time but did not meet the minimum requirement. For full return ($500) you must

                  complete 20 credits. Deposit or Cheque returns will be given based on the following:

                   

                   $100 will be deducted for each 4 credits, or part thereof, you do not complete.

                   $100 will be deducted for each volunteer event you signed up for but did not attend. 

                   $100 will be deducted for each volunteer event you sign up for but cancel less than one week in advance.


                  ***Note: Appeals may be made to the club for consideration during the season.
