Fee-in-lieu of volunteer work: Adult members are expected to contribute to helping the club run by volunteering. There is a wide a range of volunteer opportunities throughout the year that can be done onsite or at home. For those who feel that they cannot contribute their time we do have a fee-in-lieu of volunteering option: $100 for dual-parent family & couple memberships, $50 for single-parent & individual memberships. Parents of athletes in the Racing Program cannot choose this option as the program need is too great. You can select this option at registration.

Included in the membership fees are $12 to Nordiq Canada and $10 to XC Ski Ontario for every individual. Our district, the National Capital Division, is the only one in Ontario that doesn’t add its own levy. Members 5 years old and under do not have these fees.

What do the fees cover? As a member, you are part of a community which provides skill development programming, coaching and official development, support for Ontario athletes internationally and domestically, financial support for student athletes, club development support, Para-Nordic programming and development, comprehensive insurance coverage including Directors and Officers insurance, and more.
