Payment of Fees
Bi-monthly Swim Team Fees
a. These are the fees
associated with your child’s participation on the swim team.
Fees are established by the City of St. Peters and the Aquatics
Center. These fees are due no later than the 10th of
each month.
b. Fees should be paid by
check made payable to the “City of St.
Peters”.
c.
Ensure your check
reflects the name of your swimmer(s) and the group (Tiger, Mako,
Hammerhead, Great White JV, or Great White SV) your child practices
with.
d. Fees should be paid at
the drop box in the lobby of the
Rec-Plex.
e. Your canceled check is
your receipt.
f. For those who must pay
in cash, always make payments directly to the front desk. They are
equipped to provide you with a cash receipt.
g. Extended absences from practice sessions are often times
unavoidable. Family vacations and childhood illnesses can prevent
swimmers from attending practices for a period of time.
Families may address a letter to the Aquatics Director
requesting a credit to your account for expected and emergency
absences where swimmers will miss two or more weeks of
practice.
USA Registration Fees
a. ANNUAL REGISTRATION FEE: This
fee is payable annually for swimmers to compete in USA Swimming
sanctioned swim events. This fee is payable during the registration
period each year.
b. TRANSFER FEE: Swimmers who
transfer from one USA Swimming sanctioned swim team to another must
complete a USA Swimming Transfer Form. Both the former coach and
the new coach must sign the form. This form should be turned in to
the Head Coach with the appropriate transfer
fee.
NOTE: Transferring swimmers have competition requirements they
must follow for a period of 120 days from the date of the last
competition with the former club. Please check with the coaching
staff for these rules.
Parent’s Association
Fees
Listed below are some of the fees required to be paid through the
Parent’s Association.
a. ANNUAL REGISTRATION
FEE: The Board of Directors determines a reasonable fee paid
annually for all members to join the Parent’s Association.
The funds collected from this fee are used to offset the costs of
day-to-day operations of the swim team outside the basic services
provided by the Rec-Plex and the City of St. Peters. The fee is
established per family.
b. MEET ENTRY FEES: These
are the fees required to enter USA Swimming swim meets. During the
registration period, each family is encouraged to pay a fee to
their swimmer’s escrow account. The recommended escrow fees
are listed below:
TIGER
$ 50.00 per swimmer
MAKO,
HAMMERHEAD
$ 75.00 per swimmer
GREAT WHITE, JV &
SV $ 100.00
per swimmer
c. Most of the initial
escrow payments are depleted within the first three months of
competition each year. Parents have a responsibility to replenish
this account to ensure the team can pay a child’s meet
fees.
d. Some families, once
their escrow account is depleted, may elect to pay for each meet as
they enter their swimmers. Each meet entry form must include a
check, payable to the “Rec-Plex Sharks Parent’s
Escrow” for the total amount of the entry fees your child
will require to enter the meet.
e. Escrow accounts must
be maintained with a positive balance. Parents have the
responsibility to ensure their children’s escrow accounts are
replenished. Swimmers failing to maintain a positive balance may be
declared ineligible to enter a meet in which entry fees have not
been paid in advance.
f.
Escrow account
statements will be mailed to parents several times during the
year.
