USDA INSURANCE COORDINATORS NOTES
Elizabeth Sanders
Greeting Everyone,
Can you believe this. It is already another year
and our ‘normal’ is so very different from one year ago.
In case you have not heard the rates have been
released and they are higher for 2025. The rates for 2025 will
be $6.00 per member. The insurance coordinators have received
information about this. Many of you have already entered your
information in the portal and submitted your payments. THANK
YOU!! And a big THANK YOU to those coordinators who have used
the NEW Summary Sheet. It has made it so much quicker for me.
Let’s talk about Club Sponsored Classes. All
Mainstream classes qualify for free insurance BUT you must
complete the Class Roster form and submit it. Please make sure
your clubs do not add the class members to the roster in the
portal. If they do that then the students are not free. Any name
entered on the roster page in the portal requires a payment
unless they are paid by another club and you have placed an
asterisk after their name.
I haven’t requested to have the insurance
tri-fold pamphlet reprinted for 2025 yet. Have you checked the
website lately? You need to as I am updating forms often. Did
you know that USDA has tuition scholarships for high school and
college students. Homeschoolers are also eligible. Check the
website for more information.
As always, you can call or email me with
questions you may have.
Sincerely,
Elizabeth Sanders
