Membership
ACSC welcomes guests at all times. We do not limit the amount of training sessions a person may have as a guest.
​
Membership is held in high regard for those who have shown a long time commitment (at least 1 year with ACSC) to the time and effort involved in training and participating in the sport, and participating in the maintenance associated with a healthy club environment.
​
Membership applications are accepted once a year in January.
-
Each application will be considered based on the qualifications listed above. Is the commitment to training consistent?
-
Is the handler intending to participate in the sport?
-
Is the handler a positive presence within the club atmosphere?
-
Is there effort made to help maintain the club?
-
Each application will be voted on with new members being announced by the end of January.
​
Our training order is determined on a first come, first served basis, on 3 separate lists.
If you have an occasional scheduling conflict, please ask a director to find someone to switch with you.
The lists are followed in this order:
1. Obedience (not determined by membership, allowing an opportunity to leave before protection)
2. Members (protection)
3. Guests (non-member protection)
