EXCERPT FROM VSC FAQ:
How will I know when to renew?
Approved overnight chaperones, band adjuncts, and/or Good News Club volunteers will be notified via the email account associated with their volunteer application at least 30 days prior to expiration. Fingerprinting only needs to be done once, unless the approved status has expired. If the overnight chaperone/band adjunct/Good News Club volunteer allows the approval to expire and wants to continue as an approved overnight chaperone/band adjunct/Good News Club volunteer, the applicant will need to be re-fingerprinted and pay the initial cost of $41.25
