Membership Information
Welcome to PDTC. We are glad that you are enjoying our training program and are interested in becoming a member. To be eligible for membership you must first attend 3 full 8-week class sessions. These must be completed with PDTC and can be a combination of Agility, Obedience, Rally, Nose Work, or Pet Dog classes. In addition, anyone interested in joining PDTC needs to be recommended/endorsed by 2 current members and list them on their membership application. This requirement is intended to confirm that prospective members have demonstrated an interest in being involved in and supporting the club.
Once you have fulfilled the requirement, you may request a welcome package including the specifics for PDTC membership by emailing the membership secretary at pdtccorrsecretary@gmail.com. If you are ready to become a member, you can find the membership application here.
Some benefits of membership in PDTC include reduced class, seminar, and barn rental rates, subsidized annual award banquet cost for members and guests, and free annual award plaques. We also have a mentor program that pairs new members with more experienced handlers and competitors who can guide you through competition opportunities and offer you support along the way.
Along with membership come some club responsibilities. Members are required to fulfill Volunteer Working Requirements to maintain eligibility for member rates and other discounts. Most of these involve volunteering for the club by helping at our agility and obedience shows, attending general meetings and participating on our service and community outreach efforts. All the specifics about our membership requirements are outlined in our Volunteer Working Requirements Policy and the PDTC By-Laws. Additionally, there are membership dues of $30.00 due upon being granted PDTC membership and annually on the 1st of the year.
