HOW TO JOIN
Membership in Eastside Explorers is contingent upon each family's compliance with Arizona law and Board approval. Only one membership will be granted per family. Effective April 1, 2009, Eastside Explorers only accepts membership applications from families who are homeschooling according to Arizona law. This does not include fmilies with students enrolled in AZVA, Connections or other public school at home programs. Please see the What is Homeschooling link for more information.
Dues are $45 if your registration is received between October 1st and May 31st and $35 per year if your registration is received between June 1st and September 30th. Dues may be paid with your online registration via PayPal. Please note that any student who wishes to participate in Eastside's Junior or Senior High graduation ceremonies MUST be a member as of January 31 of the graduating year.
Nominal fees will be charged throughout the year for Mad Science and Art classes, as well as our "main events" and some field trips. Our park days have no additional fees associated with them. As a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, we seek only to cover our costs associated with these events and activities.
Please e-mail any questions about membership to Debbie Wiener, at sd.wiener@cox.net.
If a member requests for membership termination, we are happy to refund the membership fee within 14 days of the date of membership approval. We are unable to issue refunds after that date. A bank fee will be charged for returned checks.
