How much is it to join QCWOC?   An annual membership is $25.00, plus GETMEREGISTERED  (GMR) fee.

What is GetMeRegistered?   GETMEREGISTERED is a website that QCWOC uses to manage membership and events.

How much are events?   Some events are FREE and some events aren't.  The event description will specify if there is an additional event cost.

How do I sign up for events?  First, event participation requires club membership.   Members have two choices:  sign up through the QCWOC webpage or through GETMEREGISTERED webpage.   On GMR webpage, search QCWOC and the website will respond with a page of QCWOC events.

What is a Q number?  Each QCWOC member is assigned an eight digit Q number upon becoming a QCWOC member.   The Q number is included in the membership email you receive from GMR.   The Q number is required when signing up for each QCWOC event. 

How do I know if I'm signed up for an event?  Once signing up for an event, members receive an email from GETMEREGISTERED.   Also, members can create a participant login for the GMR website.  Once logged on to GMR, you can view all your signed up events.

What is a event WAITLIST and how is it managed?  A waitlist may or may not be used for an event.  If an event has a waitlist, and the only option that remains is to join the waitlist, click the waitlist and sign up for the event.  A waitlist is used to find substitutes for participants who cancel their sign up for a specific event.   The event POC manages the waitlist  which lists members in the order they signed up.  Waitlists are managed by first-come-first-serve basis.  A member might be contacted by the event POC just days before the event or the day before the event.  A waitlist member who is contacted by the event POC can decide, when contacted,  if they would still like to participate in the event.  If a member declines, the event POC continues to work the waitlist.  If the waitlist member accepts the waitlist spot for a paid event, the waitlist member pays the member whose spot they filled.

If I need to cancel my participation in a paid event, how do I get my money back?  QCWOC events are non-refundable.  However, if a paid event has a waitlist, it is possible to get your money back from another member who takes your spot.   Contact the event POC timely so she may be able to work the waitlist for a possible substitute.   It is possible the waitlist will yield no substitute.   A member who takes the place in a paid event for another member is responsible to pay the member whose place they are taking.     If an event is FREE, the waitlist process is the same except reimbursement is not a part of the process. 

How do I cancel my participation for a FREE event?  Contact the event POC.  She will work the event waitlist if one exists.

What if I'm arriving late for an event?   Contact the Event POC.  The event POC will decide how a late arrival will impact the start of the event and respond accordingly.   The decision on how long to wait for late participants is event specific.  Please consider valuable time of all participants and plan for timely arrival at all events. 

How do I sent a question or inquire regarding a specific event?  Each event has a point of contact (POC).  Call or text or email the POC.

Do I need specific equipment or experience to join QCWOC and participate in an event?   Neither equipment or experience is needed.  As a member, recommend reading the event you are interested in and contacting the event POC with questions.  

Does QCWOC have a FACEBOOK page?  Yes, QCWOC Members Only page.  This page is available to past and current members and includes event announcements, event posts and pictures, merchandise purchases, and member posts who just want to get together outside of a planned QCWOC event.   FACEBOOK posts are managed by QCWOC administrators who manage and approval posts prior to posting.
