If your membership card indicates that your status is Prospective, then you need to attend an Orientation. Orientation is generally done once a month. Currently there are 27 members who need to attend Orientation before they will receive the gate code and Active Status. Prospective members will receive an email when there is going to be an Orientation. They can also look for Orientation events in the Club News and on the Calendar. 

If your membership card indicates Pending then there is information missing on your application. Often this is an adequate picture. The picture should be of your head and shoulders  and uploaded to your account in Jpeg format. Pictures of PAL cards, or you fishing, hunting or shooting are not acceptable. 

Many of our those currently with Pending status are multi-year members who have been carried over into our new membership system. Some have uploaded ID photos, but have not updated the rest of their membership information or signed the new waiver. Pending members can log in to their membership file and update this info, after which you will receive the gate code. 

Please note that an attempt or attempts have been made to contact multi-year members.

New Membership System - Join It

The Board made the decision to move to an online membership system for a number of reasons:

  1. a) Cost - it is becoming prohibitively expensive to mail out membership forms and cards. Costs include postage, materials and labor;
  2. b) Moving online allows members to update their information in a timely manner, and provides us with an up-to-date membership database;
  3. c) Join It includes email capacity, which we were paying separately for;
  4. d) Members can download an electronic membership card to store on their mobile phone, in either Apple or Google Wallet. You can also download a file you can print out;
  5. d) Many members have asked to be able to apply, renew and pay for their membership online; and
  6. e) Join It also has additional capacities that we may use in the future.

 

Comments:

1) Membership fee - this remains at $120.00 per year.

2) HST - the necessity to pay HST on membership is not due to the switch to Join It. The need to pay HST on top of the membership fee has to do with CRA regulations. However, we will be able to recover HST paid on materials and services that we are using.

3) There is a transaction fee in Join It to use the Stripe payment system. However, this fee greatly simplifies handling of our membership fees. They are processed and deposited directly into our bank account, with no volunteer or membership coordinator time involved. 

 

Membership Photo  - as part of the membership process you will be asked to upload a photograph of yourself. This photo should be a head and shoulder picture, between 1 and 10 Mb in size, and uploaded in jpeg/jpg format. Pretty much the same as a photograph for your PAL.  Please give the photo a bit of time to upload and do not keep repeating trying to upload one. If the original upload did not work, we can get a photo from you and upload it later.

 

Pending/Provisional Status - initially your membership status will show as pending. We will change this to active once we have made sure that all the necessary fields on the membership form have been filled out correctly.

 

Membership Application - we recommend you fill out the application form on a computer or pad. The portal may not size well on some phones.  You will find a link to the Membership Application on the home page and under Members Info - Membership Application.
