2.7.25 Membership Email

Dear DGSRC Member:

The DGSRC Board met earlier this week, and we are well on our way to a successful season!  Please see important updates regarding renewing your membership below and other highlights from the meeting.

  • Membership Renewal:
    • You can now log into your Member Splash portal (dgsrc.net) to pay your 2025 membership dues. 
    • As a testament to how wonderful DGSRC is, there are over 100 families that are currently waitlisted for membership. We will open enrollment to the waitlist on March 17th, meaning returning members are not guaranteed a membership if they do not pay membership dues prior to March 17th.
    • DGSRC now accepts Zelle payments! 
      1. In MemberSplash, select the ‘check’ option just as you would if you were paying with a paper check.  Instead of mailing us a paper check, use Zelle® to make your payment.
      2. Open your bank app with the Zelle® option or scan the QR code at the bottom of this email to find your bank.
      3. Through your bank app, add us as a recipient with the below detail:
        1. Name: Downers Grove Swim & Racquet Club
        2. Email: Membership@dgsrc.net
      4. Enter the amount shown on your MemberSplash dues registration screen.
      5. IMPORTANT: Enter your last name and MemberSplash ID number in the message/note option field.  If this is not completed, activating your membership may be delayed.
      6. Note: Your bank may limit the amount you can transfer through Zelle®. If this occurs and the limit is less than what you owe, please send the full amount owed by paper check. This is not a limit set by DGSRC.
    • Swim lessons, tennis lessons, and swim team sign-ups will be posted on March 10th.  You must be a member to register.
    • If you do not plan on renewing, we understand!  If you want to be removed from our system and email distribution list, please click here!  
  • Pickleball courts: ask and you shall receive! 2 tennis courts are being converted to 6 dedicated pickleball courts. The construction is anticipated to be done by Memorial Day. Stay tuned for more info!
  • Thank you to those who attended the January 2025 Kick-off meeting! If you were unable to attend you can view the presentation here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1u02X5tfWtyR7DtUIB3SlQzFRpuJd4dN8/view

Finally, thank you to the Board for their continued efforts.  Last night, we welcomed Valerie Drews as the new Board Secretary, Jamie Schifley for Swim Team Programming, Allison MacFarlane for Membership, and Chelsea Borchers for Water Polo. Thank you to Anne Healey, outgoing President, for her years of tireless, creative, and joyful service to DGSRC. 

 

If you have any questions, please email membership@dgsrc.net.

Thank you to every member for their support as we enter another great season.

Sincerely,

The DGSRC Board
