ALL PUNCH CARD
Swimmers:
You MUST renew your 2010 USMS
registration before a new punch card will be
issued.
[5] PUNCH CARD
Swimmers: Due
to issues surrounding "missed" punches on punch cards for those
swimmers who forget their punch card or do not have punches
remaining on their card, WMST is implementing a new system
using a sign-in sheet.
WMST policy has always been that anyone on a
PUNCH
CARD system should expect to pay the drop-in
fee of
$8.00 when they do not have their punch card. For
those who do not have cash to pay the drop-in fee, the coaches now
have a sign-in sheet that a Punch Card user can sign, authorizing
WMST to charge the drop-in fee of $8.00 to the swimmer's
account.
