Volunteer Agreement
The Kitimat Marlins Swim Club (KMSC) is a member-run, not-for-profit organization that relies on the participation of the membership to run the Club’s “on-deck” and “off-deck” activities. KMSC’s requires fair participation from all member families to to raise funds for the club and ensure its future. KMSC uses a point system to track family participation activities.

| Bronze | 15 | $450.00 |

| Swim Fit | 12 | $350.00 |
