All valid, timely applications will be added to each trip’s Participant
List in the order of the postmark date.
·
Members submitting applications that fail to meet eligibility
requirements (postal or otherwise) will be notified so that they can
re-apply.
·
If a trip’s roster fills during early mail-in sign-up, subsequent
applicants will go on a waitlist in the order of the postmark date. If
there are applications which tie for eligibility and cannot all be
accommodated, then an unbiased lottery will be used by the President and
VP of Trips to determine which applications are put on the Participant
List and which ones are added to the wait list.
·
The Trip Chair will hold (not deposit) waitlisted members’ checks until
a space becomes available on the trip. The Trip Chair will contact you
to confirm your desire to join the trip before depositing your check.

You will be notified of your status on the trip within a week of the
Trip Chair receiving the application, after July 17.
