Membership renewal and
changes
To view this email as a web page
click here.
Dear Members,
The new skating season is upon us and memberships are coming
up for renewal. For those of you who purchased a full year
membership, it will expire on June 30, 2011. You are able to
start renewing your membership today. There are a few
changes that you will see when you log in to renew your
membership. The membership categories have been revised and
simplified. All the prices remain the same.
The new membership categories are as follows:
(Any first time member-competing or
not)
Adult/Older Child - $75
(Age 11 and up as of July 1, 2011)
Child - $55
(Age 10 and under as of July 1, 2011)
Certified Official,
Coach or Board Member - $30
(Certified Level 2 and above and Individual Club Board
Members - Max of 4 board members per club)
National Marathon Racing
License - $15
(Good for four (4) consecutive days)
Introductory
First-Time Two-Month Trial - $10
(Non-competing skaters new to speedskating. This membership
is not valid for racing or competitions)
There is no longer a distinction between competing and
non-competing members. You will now choose the membership
category that fits your needs. If you are a Level 2 coach
but also compete, you may purchase the certified official,
coach or board member membership.
The Certified
Official, Coach or Board member
is expanded from last year. If you are a certified Level 2
or above coach you will automatically have the option to
purchase that membership for $30. If you are not a
certified level 2 and above coach, the option will not be
available to you. The same holds true for officials. I
have enlisted the help of Hans Hoefgen to update the
official’s list but unfortunately, there are a large number
of associations and clubs who have not responded to Hans so
the list of Level 2 officials is incomplete until he hears
back from those associations and direct clubs.
Board members of individual clubs have the
opportunity to also purchase the $30 membership but I need
to know ahead of time who those board members are. I have a
partial list of board members that I was supplied last year
and will be updating the database with those names.
The one day one dollar membership is still
available for those wanting to try the sport for the first
time. The forms are available online in the document/forms
section of the website. This temporary membership is
available for a 5-time use and is not valid for competitions
or races.
The one-day racing license is a new addition to
this season. This can be used for non-championship events
such as local club events. The cost is $10 per day and can
be used an unlimited amount of times. The application form
is located on our website under the document/forms section.
Full details are located on the form.
The Speedskater Nation Fan club is not a
USS membership; it is a fan club for fans of the sport. All
members actively participating in the sport should purchase
one of the appropriate membership categories.
To renew your membership, please use the online link at
https://webpoint.usspeedskating.org/wp15/Intralock/Login.asp?targetPath=/wp/Memberships/Join.asp
to do so.
If you have forgotten your user name and password
there is an area to obtain that information on this page.
If you should have any questions, please feel free to
contact me.
