RECREATION PASS
Every person who uses the Arts and Recreation Centre or the Twin Arenas should have a Recreation Pass. Customers who do not present the pass when purchasing public admissions or registering for programs, will pay 25% more than those customers with the pass in their possession. All rental groups need all of their members to have passes or the rental group will pay non resident rental fee.
WHY THE PASS?
The pass ensures that residents who pay for the North Cariboo Recreation and Parks function through annual taxation do not subsidize the use of the facilities by residents of non contributing areas. Customers who live in the taxation area, receive the pass free, while non residents pay $70 per individual or $125 per family for the pass. Passes, like taxes, are issued based on a calendar year (January 1 – December 31).
WHEN TO RENEW YOUR PASS
Most existing resident and non resident passes expire December 31, 2010. Some residents who acquired a pass this year will not need to renew their passes until December 2011. Non resident pass fees are still the same: $70 for an individual and $125 for a family. Resident passes are free.
