Retirees

Are you a Confederation College Retiree? As a retiree, you are eligible for 1 free year Rec membership on retirement. Stay in the know of all the upcoming College Rec events by providing us with your most current email address. You can email: [email protected] and your updated information will be applied to the distribution list.

Events

All activities, unless otherwise specified, are open to members, family/friends and all staff, however only College Rec Association members will be offered a reduced participation cost. Some events may be limited to only College Rec Association Members due to number restrictions.

Events requiring Association Members to pay a small additional fee means that you are receiving a discounted rate from the original ticket price as we cannot always cover the full cost of a ticket. For example: A ticket for a spaghetti dinner costing $15.00 would be offered to Association Members for $5.00 with the additional $10.00 being covered by the College Rec Association.

All events require advanced sign-up through Eventbrite unless otherwise stated. Details for each event will be posted to Staff News and sent to members via email. If you registered for an event but cannot attend, you can respond through the Eventbrite email feature prior to the stated cut-off time.

Food substitutions must be made prior to an event directly with that events food service provider by the member requesting the change.

Please be advised that photos may be taken at events. Photo's will strictly be used on Staff News and the College Rec web page for archive and promotional use only.

For Events With Children In Attendance

For any event in which you will be bringing a child, as the parent or guardian, you will be fully responsible for the conduct of that child by ensuring that they act in a polite and acceptable manner. Failure to do so may result in that child being removed from the event.

Event Etiquette

If you have signed up for a College Rec event and realize afterwards you are not able to attend, please email: [email protected] or respond through Eventbrite prior to the event cut-off date. This allows for anyone on a wait list the opportunity to attend. It will also ensure the appropriate amount of food is ordered and that the College Rec Association will not be allocating additional dollars to persons who are not in attendance. In cases where an additional fee was charged, your money will be fully refunded if tickets are returned before the cut-off date.

For larger and more costly events i.e.: Dinner With Friends, a refundable deposit of 5.00 will be charged to all members attending and refunded back to the member at the event.
