Equipment Checkout
One of the purposes of the Club card is to allow members to check out equipment, games, and other Club items. When a member checks out equipment with their card, they are agreeing to be responsible for the item they check out. When a member is finished playing, all equipment must be in the same condition, as when it was checked out. Parents will be responsible for the cost of damaged equipment.
