Additional Membership Information:

The Mission Viejo Nadadores Foundation is a nonprofit, public benefit corporation.  Swim 'Dues' provide the high-quality coaching and swim programs necessary to support a premier, highly competitive, year-round swim program. Swim Dues based on the fee schedule above, are billed to your credit card on the 10th of the month. (* Masters swimmers who also have Youth swimmers pay the lesser of any qualifying category.)

New Swimmers may have one FREE practice to evaluate the program.  The first month’s dues are based on the date of the first scheduled regular practice:

• First scheduled regular practice prior to the 15th - Full Monthly Dues
• First scheduled regular practice on or after the 15th - Half Monthly Dues

Enrollment must be complete with all fees/dues paid, prior to beginning regular practices.

Notification Requirements:  All requests for extended absences or separation from the team must be written and received in the Swim Office by the 15th of the month prior to the effective date.

Leave of Absence (LOA) (i.e., Vacation, High School Swimming, Water Polo, other sports):  If a swimmer decides to take a leave of absence for a period of less than four (4) months, they will be responsible for paying half dues for the months missed when they return.  If a swimmer returns after a four month absence, they will be considered a new swimmer.

Medical LOA:  Dues will be waived for any illness or injury if the swimmer is absent for one or more full calendar month.  (Physician written verification required.)

Important Note:  Monthly dues are required of ALL swimmers; swim dues will not be prorated based upon attendance.

Travel Trips: It is the responsibility of parents to provide for the cost of transportation, lodging and meals when their swimmers travel to out-of-town meets. Any swimmer whose dues are delinquent will NOT be permitted to participate in team travel trips.

Fundraising Commitment:

There are currently two (2) primary fundraising activities:  discount card sales and the swim-a-thon.  The Board establishes annually the minimum levels of family/swimmer participation.  For the 2008-2009 swim year, the minimums are ten (10) discount cards ($100 total) and $50 swim-a-thon sponsorship.  Families that fail to meet these minimums will be billed for the amounts.
