Benefits

One of the great benefits that SCRC members get, is use of our very own version of AAA. We call it Eagle Rescue. It is a network of volunteers from all over that have offered to lend you a helping hand if you should breakdown in their area of the world. Normally, you would make contact with your first officer and we will get you in touch with someone that is a member of the network in the area of your breakdown. If you are making plans to travel you might want to take a look at the site and jot down some phone numbers.

While you’re at it, check out our Spring Promotion! Hurry – this promotion ends April 30^th, 2009:

The free night is based on an 8,000 point Choice Privileges reward night level. Bonus points will be added to points earned from every two qualifying stays at eligible rates with arrival between Feb. 5 and April 30, 2009, to reach the 8,000 point reward level; however, if both stays are at Choice’s 5 points per dollar earning brands (MainStay Suites^®, Suburban Extended Stay Hotel^®, Econo Lodge^®, Rodeway Inn^®), only enough bonus points will be added to reach the 6,000 point reward night level. Members may use bonus points for a free night at our hotels, recognizing the 6,000 or 8,000 point award level, as applicable, or may be applied toward a higher award level. Although members can redeem 6,000 points for a free stay at many of our hotels, the majority of our hotels require a higher award level. Qualifying stays at Ascend Collection™ hotels are also eligible for this offer. Choice Privileges number must be provided upon check-in for the stay to be eligible. A stay is defined as any number of consecutive nights at one hotel regardless of check-ins or check-outs. Allow 72 hours from check-out for points to post to your account. You must maintain an address in the U.S. (including U.S. territories), Canada or Mexico to be eligible for this promotion.

I am pleased to announce That Michelle Evans, member of SCRC, has agreed to give our membership, all over the Nation, a discount at her lodge.

She has agreed to this but you must prove membership for the discount.

15% off rooms at the lodge and 10% off beverages and food at the lodge.

This 25% discount should knock off around 15.00 per member. A pretty good savings. The officers have been asked to keep this discount "in the club" so if you are interested please make contact with GatorVTX to get the promo code.
