Work to Play Program

Avalanche VBC – Work to Play | Pilot Program

Our Work to Play program is setup and designed to help those families who need financial assistance to help with their seasonal club dues. However, our Work to Play program is open to all Avalanche VBC families to earn credit towards your seasonal club dues. Families may earn up to $500 to help supplement your club fees. $500 is the (current) maximum amount any one family may earn; however, the maximum amount is not guaranteed. I have set a budget for the program and once all monies are used, the program will expire for the season. By setting a program budget, I hope to be able to offer assistance through the Work to Play program for anyone who requests/needs it. Any fees earned towards your club dues will be credited to your account. Both athletes and parents are eligible to earn credit toward the athlete’s club dues.
