2. Members are billed via e-mail on the 21st of the month . Pay in full account balance are due the 15th of next month.(april 15) Accounts electing 2 installments will be billed in 2 installments March and April 21 , due April 15 and May 15.

4. Members with balances over 30 days old will not be eligible to enter meets until the account is brought current. Balances 60 days overdue will result in termination of membership privileges. You must contact Lisa Cameron immediately to avoid termination of your membership.
5. Any swimmer wishing to terminate their contract must notify LAC Treasurer, Lisa Cameron in writing or email by the 15th of the month in order to avoid being billed for the next month. Verbal notice to a coach or anyone other than the Treasurer that one plans to discontinue participating in LAC is not proper notice. If a member is billed unnecessarily and cannot provide proof of termination date, the member will be responsible for all charges on the account(s).
6. If a member quits the program or is dropped from LAC due to a delinquent account, overdue and current account balances are immediately due in full. The member will be allowed to rejoin the program only after the past due balance is cleared and a joining fee of $20.00 is paid. Any exemption of the $20 fee will be made on a case by case basis.
7 Early termination of your contract will result in a $75 early termination fee and any prepayment/sibling discounts will not be refunded.
8. For checks returned due to insufficient funds there will be a $25 service charge or the prevailing bank charge, whichever is greater.
9. If a member is unsatisfied with the LAC program and wants a refund, an assessment will be conducted to determine the cause of dissatisfaction. Requests of this type will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Members who are unsatisfied with the LAC program after the first five calendar days of participation may withdraw their membership in writing and be eligible for a full refund of training fees but will forfeit the USS fees. Again, these refunds will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
Detailed below is a summary of the fees and/or dues that may appear on the monthly bill. Each member will be responsible for these financial obligations.
1. USS Fees – Each swimmer is required to pay USS registration fees before participation.
2. Monthly LAC Training Fees - Each member is required to pay the appropriate monthly training dues in a timely fashion as set forth in this billing policy.
3. Meet Entry Fees - The entry fees (set by the host team) are charged for each meet entered by a member. Meet entries are to be prepaid by the participant. Once entry fees have been sent to the host team or the meet program has been seeded for LAC events, you will be responsible for the entry fees even if you decided not to compete due to personal choice or illness, no exceptions. Lack of knowledge of the meet entry process does not waive meet entry fees.Swimmers who compete in a relay will be charged the entry fee for participation in that event.
I have read and completed the USS Registration form, the Billing Policies form and the LAC Registration form. I have read and understand the Meet Entry and Volunteer Process information. I agree to be fully responsible for the information in each of these forms and to be fully responsible for all charges incurred for training fees, entry fees, and all other charges billed. I have reviewed and am in agreement with the billing policies of the Lancaster Aquatic Club.
