Dues
1. A graduated scale will be used for dues with a per family cap of $180.00 per month. A positive cash flow is required to assure payroll requirements and various other expenditures are met. It is imperative for all GST parents to pay their swimmers’ monthly dues on or before the 1st of each month. If the outstanding dues have not been paid and posted by the 10th of the following month, the swimmer will not be allowed to practice until the dues are paid.
2. All dues are expected to be paid by credit card on the website unless other arrangements have been approved by the board. Dues and all expenses from the previous month are charged to the credit card, by the club, on the 1st of each month.
3. If the board has approved other arrangements, it takes several days for the payment to be posted. In addition, if a swimmer has two checks returned for insufficient funds we will no longer be able to accept their check and they must pay their account balance with a money order or cash.
