Membership

“My children and I have been volunteering for years, but what I love most about btc is that it’s just my son and me. As he ages, it becomes more important than ever to help him see the world outside of his circle and to experience the joy that comes with serving others. It’s also increasingly precious one-on-one time for us. This is our fourth year of involvement with btc, and it’s one of the best decisions we’ve ever made.”
— Catherine, Roadrunner League

How to Join a League

 

01.

All btc leagues have their specific membership boundaries listed on their League home page. Find the league closest to you and make sure your family meets these boundary requirements. If your inquiry falls during our Prospective Membership Drive please fill out the “Prospective Membership Application.” Missed the Prospective Membership Drive? Click the "Contact Us" button for your geographically assigned league and a member of the btc League board will get in touch with you.

02.

All Prospective Members must be sponsored by a current btc League Member in good standing. The Sponsoring Member must submit the “Intent to Sponsor Form" during the Prospective Member Drive. Don't have a sponsor? Click the "Contact Us" button for your geographically assigned league and a member of the btc League board will get in touch with you.

03.

All Prospective Member Applicants are sorted by their appropriate class. If there are more applicants than space available in a class, the applicants will be selected by random draw to fill the class or, if necessary, placed on a waitlist. Prospective Member Applicants and their Sponsors will be contacted by the VP of Membership following the draw.
