4. Don’t Forget to Pay Your Dues!
Payment Options:
Your annual membership fee is $350 per membership and is due by June 30th 2019.  If payment is not received by June 30 – the fee increases to $500. Our Treasurer, Greg Cunningham, is pleased to offer different payment options for your convenience.
The preferred methods for paying for tennis club items are as follows:
• First – Interac bank transfer from your bank. This has the lowest fees to keep costs low. No password is required anymore. Reference your member first and last name in the email. Please email the transfer to the Treasurer at sanssoucitc@gmail.com.
• Second – Credit card payments. This option has higher fees, which are added to the member price. Go to the website at http://www.ssca.info and select ‘Dues payment’ from the ‘Tennis’ drop down menu.
• Last resort – Cheques are payable to Sans Souci Tennis Club. They can be mailed to the Treasurer Greg Cunningham at 24 Kingsgarden Rd, Etobicoke, ON, M8X 1S6. Please email Greg at  sanssoucitc@gmail.com when you mail a check, so he knows to look for it.
Note that in accordance with our bylaws, your membership could be forfeited if you have not paid your annual dues by July 1st the following year.
Reminder: Your SSCA membership dues must also be paid yearly in conjunction with being a SSTC member.
