** To encourage more families to participate in CC courses and activities, PA has two schemes to encourage participation:

a) Spouse of the principal card member can sign up as supplementary card member. Instead of paying $12, they will pay only $10, that is, enjoy a $2 off the membership fees;

b) Children below 18 can tag as Supplementary Members to their parent’s Principal Card at no additional cost. However, these children will have no cards issued to them. The Supplementary Card Members will still be able to enjoy the discounts and privileges at all CCs/PA Outlets.
