Membership & Reservation Policies
(elec. version 2008)
Membership Policy
General
Regular membership is open to spouses of active duty U.S. officers. Associate Membership is open to spouses of retired officers, spouses of civilians eligible for membership in the Officer’s Club, any single officer or civilian equivalent, spouses of Component Command Air Headquarters foreign officers, and the widows or widowers of officers. The ROSC Governing Board will make exceptions to the above stated criteria on a case-by-case basis.
Dues Payment Policy
Annual membership dues are $60.00, paid by check or cash one a year. The month the member joins is the member’s dues renewal month, i.e. join in July, renew in July. Renewal reminders will be given. To cancel or resign a membership, please contact the Membership Chairperson. Any exceptions to the above policy will be handled by the Membership Chairperson and/or the Executive Board on a case-by-case basis.
Dues Reimbursement Policy
If a member PCS’s within 6 months of joining or renewing her/his membership with ROSC, she/he may request in writing, along with a copy of her/his orders, a partial reimbursement of $30 of her/his membership fee.
Delinquent Renewals Date Policy
If a member is delinquent in paying their membership renewal fee, their renewal month will remain the same as their original membership date (i.e., if member joined in April but didn’t renew until September, their next renewal date will again be April).
Name Tag Policy
Each new member is entitled to one name tag at the time of new membership. Any further replacements will be the responsibility of the member.
Membership Directory Policy
Only ROSC members will receive an ROSC Membership Directory. The Directory is for the sole use of the members and may not be distributed to any other persons or organizations.
Reservation Policy
To secure your reservation, you will need to provide a credit card number. We recommend that you provide your club card number; aside from confirming your O-Club member status, providing your club card number will ensure you receive the member rate versus the non-member rate. Upon checking in at the function, you will have the option of charging your credit card or selecting an alternate method of payment (cash or check).
To make a permanent reservation, please complete a form when checking-in at the function. Permanent reservations remain in effect from when you sign-up until you request cancellation. If you are unable to attend a function, you must cancel your permanent reservation for that month by the reservation deadline (see date above). If you fail to cancel your permanent reservation by this date, your credit card will be charged for the cost of the meal. Please understand that you have guaranteed your attendance and in doing so ROSC has purchased this meal on your behalf.
If you make a regular reservation and are unable to attend the function, you must cancel your reservation by the reservation deadline (see date above). If you fail to cancel your reservation by this date, your credit card will be charged for the cost of the meal. Please understand that ROSC has guaranteed your attendance and in doing so has purchased this meal on your behalf.
If you invite a guest and make a reservation for that guest, the same rules apply for canceling a reservation. If you fail to cancel that reservation by the reservations deadline, you will be charged for the cost of your guest’s meal. Members who do not make a reservation but want to attend the function will be handled on a first-come, first-serve basis. Please understand that space and/or food may not be available and a member may be turned away at the door.
