[2]Punch Card Holders: The
Team Administrator will be out of town at the end of February
through early March and we do not have a backup administrator to
take over, therefore, Punch Card renewals will not be
processed from February 23 to March 7.
Anyone
wishing to renew their Punch Card during this time please email
your request before Monday, February
22.
Please
remember that Punch Card holders who forget their card or who run
out of punches before the new card is issued may pay the drop in
fee ($8.00). WMST members may charge the drop-in fee to their
account by signing an authorization sheet in the coaches’
notebook.
The absence
will not affect Monthly Pass Card holders. New Monthly Pass Cards
for the month of March will be issued on February
23.
Anyone
wishing to volunteer as a backup Administrator, please let Tom Boak
or a Board Member know.
