You may have received the following email regarding the need for new volunteers. I'd like everyone's thoughts on this program. I was part of the Planning Committee for quite a while, and my reasons for leaving were not hidden from the staff. This doesn't exactly make me want to go back.
D.R.I.V.E. Program
Daybreak Resident Incentive Volunteer Exchange
This policy is structured to allow residents to earn points to redeem FREE Daybreak amenities by volunteering for DCA sponsored events and Committee meetings.
Members within a household are entitled to combine D.R.I.V.E. cards to accrue points. However, combining cards or sharing with other Daybreak Residents is not permitted. Cards must reach a total of 12 points and need to have a mixture of events and meetings. Cards will only get stamped at the time of the meeting or event and must be done so by a Daybreak Community Association staff member.
Residents may earn points by:
• Volunteering (this does not include participating at events) for Daybreak Community Association events (point amounts may vary per event).
• Participating in committee meetings earning 1 point per hour per meeting (10 points may be earned by participating in five consecutive committee meetings).
To exchange points, an adult resident, 18 years of age or older, must bring their cards to the Guest Services at the Daybreak Community Center. Redeemable amenities may be used for Daybreak guests (less the Party Trailer Rental, Small Room Rental, and Large Room Rental). Adult Daybreak Residents, 18 years of age or older, must be present with guest in order for the amenity to be used.
