Volunteering & Your Membership Bond

FTPEC is proudly run by volunteers, and the contribution of our members is essential to maintaining our facilities and delivering events throughout the year.

Our annual volunteering requirements are:

• Individual memberships: 10 hours per calendar year

• Family memberships: 20 hours per calendar year, shared across family members

Non-agistment members pay a refundable volunteer bond, which can be reclaimed once the required volunteering hours have been completed. Alternatively, members may choose to donate their bond in lieu of volunteering.

Agistment members are not required to pay a volunteer bond but must complete their applicable minimum volunteering hours each year as part of their agistment obligations.

All volunteering is recorded through SignUp, and members can monitor their completed hours and submit eligible bond refund requests through our website.
