BASIC PRINCIPLES: We need every person who is going out orienteering listed once - but only once.  If someone has an O Pass, they do not get listed  on the registration form; if someone has signed a blue waiver they do not get listed on the registration form either.

Welcome people with a smile!

Ask if they are club members (discount is extended to members of O clubs world wide!).   Non members must sign a blue waiver every time.

FOR REGISTERING MEMBERS:

Anyone who has an O Pass, signs in in the O Pass book and tells you which map they want. Do NOT list O Pass holders on the registration sheet.

For all other members, use the registration form, which will be provided.

Write each member's name on a separate line. Be sure to include all children (you may have to ask if they have brought member children with them). 

You may guess whether they are adults, children or teens. Use brackets to hold families together.

Do NOT list non-members on the form.  One exception - see below.

Collect the fee of $3 per map.   Maps may be shared.

Write how much they paid.  Use the final column for such things as "bought a membership $25", "paid by cheque", "+ $3 owed from last week".

Find out which course they want by saying "Medium?", unless they have small children with them, in which case, say "Short?".  Anyone who wants something else will say so! 

Hand them their map and - IMPORTANT - direct them to the start official.

FOR REGISTERING NON-MEMBERS:

A separate recreational orienteering form (waiver) must be filled in, read and signed by each adult each time they come orienteering. In the case of a family/ household, only one form is needed. This has to be done every time - we need their address and phone number in case they do not report to the finish.

Check that they have completed the form in full.

Collect the fee of  $7 per map if they are buying one, and write the amount paid on the 'amount paid' line on the waiver. No need to write anything if they do not pay.

Collect waivers face down on a clip board.

Find out which course they want by saying "Medium?", unless they have small children with them, in which case, say "Short?".

Hand them their map.

Ask if they need a beginners clinic.  If they do, direct them to someone wearing a name tag. 

IMPORTANT: Direct them to the start/finish official.

SPECIAL CASES:

Membership sales:  have them fill out a green form. Check that the form is filled out in full.   Fill in the bottom right hand side section of the form with the amount paid.  Write that they bought a membership in the notes column of the members registration sheet.

Cheques to be made out to "EOOC".   It can be for a sum which includes membership and  event fees.

Receipts: If someone asks for a receipt, there is a receipt book in the blue box in the red box.

Minors without their own parents:  List these on the members registration sheet (as there is nowhere else to put them!)

Groups:  there is a special registration sheet for organised groups (Scouts, Guides, Colleges etc).  These forms are in the hanging folder in the red box.  Have the leader complete the form and bring it back to you.  Fees are charged depending on whether they are members of the club or not.  

Members of other Orienteering Clubs: Anyone who is a member of any national orienteering federation gets member discount for their map, but must complete a waiver.

At 7:30pm, you can register yourself and go out on a course.  Thanks for volunteering.
