SSC has fixed costs that include pool rental and
coaches’ salaries. The pool rental is not determined on
a month-to-month basis, but by signing a yearly lease with
the
University
of
Oklahoma
. Dues are based on an annual fee, which
is broken down into monthly installments for the convenience of our
members. Dues are to be paid monthly. SSC depends upon prompt
payment of monthly dues in order to meet the club’s financial
obligations for coach’s salaries, pool rental, taxes and
travel. In order to meet these obligations, dues must be received
by the 10th of each month for that swimming period. Payments
received after the 10th are subject to a $10.00 late fee. Dues and
other fees are NOT prorated for partial periods EXCEPT IN THE CASE
OF NEW SSC MEMBERS. If you have any questions, please contact
a club official. The following rates reflect monthly and annual
charges: ALL RATES SUBJECT TO CHANGE.

MONTH YEAR ROUND WHETHER WE SWIM OR NOT.
SWIMMERS WHO ARE BEHIND IN ANY
PAYMENTS THE EQUIVLALENT OF 60 DAYS WILL NOT BE ALLOWED IN THE
WATER UNTIL PAYMENTS ARE BROUGHT TO A CURRENT STATUS.
Reinstatement
Fees:
When member families
discontinue paying monthly dues, unless the swimmer is injured and
incapable of participating in SSC, the swimmer forfeits their
membership. A physician’s letter will be required to validate
injuries. Reinstatement occurs when the member family remits the
equivalent of up to three (3) months’ dues per swimmer to be
reinstated. This figure is capped at the equivalent of the 2
swimmers paying the highest monthly dues for families with more
than 2 swimmers. Back dues or $150 will be required for
reinstatement.
Volunteer
Hours:
All families are
required to work a minimum of 15 hours per year. The period
of time runs from mid August of the current year through mid August
of the new year. The time volunteered is tracked during the
year and it is the responsibility of the families to make sure all
time spent volunteering is submitted to the coordinator for
tracking. At the end of the year all unworked hours are
billed to the family at a rate of $15 per hour left
unworked.
Note: Summer only swim
families are required to volunteer a minimum of 5 hours.
Volunteer hours may be reduced for various reasons subject to Board
approval.
