Membership is available in two tiers; Teal and Gold. The Teal membership is free and includes a monthly newsletter and a voucher for any Killer Bees home game. The Gold membership includes a Kidz Club T-shirt, invitation to a special Kidz Club Party with the Bees, discounts on monthly items at YCA and the Killer Bees Pro Shop, the opportunity to participate in on-ice intermission games, plus the chance to win Kid of the Game. The Kid of the Game will receive a special T-shirt and certificate from Killer Bees Head Coach Chris Brooks.

The Gold membership is available this Saturday only for $15. Thereafter, the cost is $20.

Throughout the season the Killer Bees will participate in cooking classes at YCA. Kidz Club members get a discounted rate on those classes and the opportunity to see what YCA can offer while learning about the art of cooking with your favorite players in a relaxed environment.
