While the pool sessions are primarily for members, guests are welcome. WKC is required to have substantial insurance coverage to rent the pools, and our coverage is provided by the American Canoe Association (ACA). ACA requires that all participants in WKC on-water events be ACA members. You may join ACA for a one year membership for $30, or purchase a one event membership for $5. You must sign a waiver in either case. The waiver doubles as an application form. You will be asked to sign in on our event roster. It has spaces for name, phone number, ACA number, emergency contact information, and a place to check whether you’re paying the WKC member or guest fee, and whether you’re paying the $5 ACA event fee. Please be sure to check off the appropriate boxes so the pool coordinator doesn’t have a mess to sort out later. It gets pretty busy and it’s easy for them to miss little details like that. FEES: If you are a current member of ACA: WKC members $8.00 Non WKC members $13.00 If you are not a current member of ACA:In addition to the pool fee above you must either: (1) Join the ACA with an annual membership (applications can be downloaded from the web and filled out ahead of time, or you can get one from the pool coordinator). You may join at the pool session if you wish.-or-(2) pay $5 and sign an ACA waiver, which is good for that pool session only. |
