What are CRAA Work Sessions? There are a number of activities required to help run the club and effectively host swim meets, which are a means of both gauging swimmers' abilities and raising funds for the club. These activities have historically been divided into work sessions that are allocated to members by the volunteer coordinator. A work session corresponds to a swim session during a swim meet, which is typically structured into a morning swim session and an afternoon swim session. The activity (work) to be done during the swim session is defined by the volunteer coordinator and is described below. How many Work Sessions do I have to do? The total number of work sessions required is divided equally and allocated to each active CRAA family, therefore the number will change based upon the number of CRAA families and the number of CRAA hosted swim meets and the number of swim meets where we are required to provide volunteers. The number of work sessions required for the current year can be found below. How do I find out my Work Session balance? The CRAA Administrative Assistant, Judy Hackney, tracks each family’s work session balance and bills for shortfalls. You can confirm your current balance by sending Judy an email (j_ney@msn.com), or by calling Judy at the CRAA office phone number (which can be found on the Home page or the Contact Us page). When am I billed for work sessions that I didn’t work? Some clubs collect work session fees at the beginning of the season and then reimburse those fees as sessions are worked. At CRAA, we bill for any shortfall at the end of the Fall/Winter season and at the end of the Spring/Summer season. The rates for sessions not worked can be found on the Registration and Contract page (see the link below). What’s the difference between Work Sessions and Fair Share? Work Sessions and Fair Share are two independent programs. You can find out more about Fair Share commitments on the CRAA home page or directly at http://www.craa.org/FairShare.html Where can I find a copy of the CRAA contract? Contractual details, including the work credit fees and the work credit requirements per family, can be found at: http://www.craa.org/Registration_and_Contract.html |

| CRAA Work Sessions |
While CRAA encourages all families to help out at meets, a family’s requirement is only for the family’s highest level swimmer.
