Registration and Renewal:
We will be using the same website this year. If you signed up last you can renew through the email you’ve received. During this process you will need to identify a tribe, the step to do so are in the bullet below. If you know your tribe from last year pick, that one, if not select the generic Boys Tribe or Girls Tribe.
If you are not registered under the new website, jump to the section for new members
- Under the “Actions” dropdown for each member you will be required to add a tribe. Select “Add Tribe” for each member. You will find Grandview K-Tribes under the “GLRAL” title in the dropdown. From there you should select either Boys Tribe or Girls Tribe. We will assign specific members to specific groups after signup/registration.
- From there it will take you to a page to submit payment. Currently the yearly dues are a total of $105 per family (not per person). $60 of that goes to our national organization to cover insurance, site hosting, event management, etc. The $45 fee goes to our local organization and is primarily used to fund the many “free” events and themed meetings throughout the year, and to account for any camp overages. We do our best to operate as a cost neutral organization.

- Visit http://grandviewktribes.
