| Club Punch Card to Full Member Upgrade | This "Upgrade" is only available to those who have already purchased a Punch Card for 2024-2025 and now want to upgrade to a full membership for the 2024-2025 fiscal year. It is also for those who have used up all of the "punches" on their first card and need a second card. Buying a second card is the equivalent of paying the upgrade to a full membership. The full membership has no restrictions on the number of rows so is the better option. | 253.25 | 2024-09-04 | 2025-03-31 | ||
| Coastal Racing Membership |
In support of growing coastal rowing in Canada, this membership provides access to racing events along with
voting privileges within OARCA. It does not provide access to OARCA
equipment, facilities, programming or any discounts on boat rentals at
events. This membership does NOT assume you are a current OARCA "Coastal Rowing Supporter" member. If you are a current Supporter member, then the "Coastal Racing Supplement" membership is the racing upgrade.

| Coastal Racing Supplement |
Already an OARCA "Coastal Rowing Supporter" for 2024-2025 but would like the opportunity to race for OARCA? This is the upgrade for you. This membership provides access to racing events along with
voting privileges within OARCA. It does not provide access to OARCA
equipment, facilities, programming or any discounts on boat rentals at
events. Since you have already paid your RCA and PRA fees as part of your Supporter membership, the actual fee for this supplement is only $25. The RCA and PRA fees will be automatically deducted upon registration.

| Coastal Rowing Supporter 2024-2025 (Non rowing) |
OARCA's mission is to promote coastal rowing within Canada. If the sport of coastal rowing interests you and you would like to join an enthusiastic community of like minded rowers, we'd love to add you to our list of members. This program is for those who are interested in being part of the coastal rowing discussion. It is not meant as a rowing program and thus does NOT entitle you row or race for OARCA. It is just for those who want to connect with other coastal rowing enthusiasts. You can apply for membership in OARCA for a nominal annual fee. The fee structure is as follows: Member of an existing rowing club in BC = $25 Member of an existing rowing club elsewhere in Canada but not in BC = $25 OARCA fee + $25.75 Rowing BC fee Not a member of any RCA affiliated rowing club in Canada = $78.25 (OARCA + RowingBC + RCA fees ($27.50)) REMINDER: This membership is a non-racing membership.

| Punch Card 2024-2025 |
This punch card is for experienced rowers to enjoy exploring our local waters in coastal boats. The punch card is good for 10 rows, and expires at the end of March, 2025. The first punched row must include an orientation session that covers launching, landing, basic safety, and equipment care/handling, and how to file a float plan before each row. (Please contact membership@oarca.ca to arrange an orientation session.) Rowers are expected to assess risks, take responsibility for their own safety, and know how to get help as outlined in the OARCA safety code. There will not be a coach or safety boat on the water. OARCA has 3 solos, 3 coastal doubles and has 2 coastal coxed quads. These boats will be available for general rowing and/or training purposes. There is a sign-out sheet to ensure all crews have access to the boats. Clubs not in the Greater Victoria area may purchase a punch card to be shared by current, active club members. Contact OARCA (membership@oarca.org) prior to purchasing the punch card for more details. Note: Punch cards may NOT be used for regattas.
