BAS Membership FAQs :
| Q | Do I need to be a member to participate in BAS events? |
| A | Yes. Membership fees help cover our costs so we can keep most of our events free. A three month trial membership is available if you would like to check us out! Paid membership is required for our larger events such as Yosemite, Family Camping Trips, Shasta, and Yerington. |
| Q | Where does this money go? |
| A | Running the number of events this ministry does is a complex and costly task. Your donations go towards expenses such as ministry management, event organization, event fees and permits, liability insurance, development of future adventure sports leaders, web hosting, equipment (first aid, radios, signage, etc…), promotional expenses, and occasional scholarships to events for those who can’t afford to attend on their own. |
| Q | Do I need a card to get a discount at sponsoring merchants? |
| A | Yes you do, your card identifies you as a member of Bayside Adventure Sports – this protects both BAS and the merchant from abuse of these generous discounts. |
| Q | Can I loan my card to a friend? |
| A | No, your card has your name on it and you’ll need to show ID when using it. If your friend would like his/her own card, have them stop by and get one. |
| Q | Do I need a new card each year? |
| A | Yes you do, this card is our primary way of supporting the on-going operating expenses of the ministry. Your card will be marked with a expiration date when you purchase it. |
| Q | I can’t afford $50, can I still get a card? |
| A | Yes you can, please make any donation you can afford. |
| Q | Can I get a card on-line, by postal mail, or email? |
| A | Yes, you can (see above to add membership to cart). If you are having trouble, contact Pam Harvey or stop by the Bayside Offices to secure your card. |
| Q | Can members of my extended family use my card? (e.g. my Uncle, my cousin, etc…) |
| A | No, the card is valid for one “nuclear” family – husband, wife, and children or step-children. Any adults or children outside of the immediate family will need their own card. |
