Announcing the PLUS PASS for 2014!

Details

Published on Wednesday, 25 September 2013 23:05

Beginning in 2014, we are pleased to offer the CWEA PLUS PASS to our teams!

At the 2013 Fall Meeting, a proposal passed adjusting the number of passes provided to units for staff and volunteers from the outdated 10-4-2-1 System, to 7 passes per team. For many of our larger teams, this cut out on the amount of parental support they could have to help setup because they would not have the available passes.

The CWEA PLUS PASS offers units the ability to pre-purchase extra passes at the time of registration that will be valid for admission into CWEA Events. For an extra $75, teams can purchase an additional 5 passes that are good for all CWEA Sanctioned Events EXCLUDING CHAMPIONSHIPS. For an Additional $25 ($100 Total), teams can purchase passes that are valid at all CWEA Sanctioned Events INCLUDING Circuit Championships.

This offer is only open to Primary Units and will not be available to Secondary or lower teams. For Example: If your school registers Beverly Hills High School as a primary unit for $475.00 and Beverly Hills Cadets as a Secondary team for $425, you would only be able to purchase an additional 5 passes.

PLUS PASSES are only valid for Directors, Staff, Instructors, Drivers, Chaperones, and other support staff.. Passes ARE NOT VALID FOR SPECTATORS. Units who abuse the rule can have their extra passes revoked without refund of the purchase price.

To purchase your PLUS PASS, select the appropriate option when registering your unit! For questions, please contact us at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. .
