The Royal tea Club was started in February 2005 by a committee of women who just love to "do" tea. Our purpose is to have fun and fellowship. We schedule at least one tea event a month March through December, usually in Maryland or Pennsylvania. We also love to travel, incorporating visits to tea rooms on our trips. Our members are currently from California, Delaware, Georgia, Indiana, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Washington, D.C., West Virginia and Alberta, Canada

MEMBERSHIP INFORMATION

Beginning 2008, our dues are $5.00 per calendar year if you chose to receive your newsletter electronically or $10.00 per calendar year to have it mailed.

If You Have E-Mail

Do you have e-mail access? If so, please send an e-mail to the club's e-mail address, TheRoyalteaClub@aol.com. This way you will be notified if vacancies for teas become available or if there are special announcements or requests. It is also in preparation for sending out the newsletter electronically as soon as we can figure out how to do it.


TEA RESERVATION PROCEDURES

If you would like to attend a club event, please contact Sharon Hart at the club office to make reservations. You may reach her at 717-259-9339 or 717-332-5851 and the email address is TheRoyalteaClub@aol.com . All reservations will be taken on a first come, first serve basis. Emailed reservation requests must be confirmed by the club office before they are considered accepted. Once you have made your reservation, and it has been confirmed, your payment must be received by the club office at 105 Frog Pond Hollow, Abbottstown PA 17301 within 10 days. If it is not received within that time frame, your reservation may be canceled. An event is closed 10 days before the event is to take place or the date specified in the newsletter

REFUND INFORMATION

A tea room makes food for the number of people we make the reservation for. Fees paid when you make your tea reservation are non-refundable unless
a - notice is given prior to 10 days before the event or
b - if a person on the waiting list is available to take your place or
c - if the tea room will give a refund
d - Beginning 2008, no refunds of credit will be given out until the end of the year.

GUEST POLICY

Our guest fee is $2.50. If that person decides to join the club, the $2.50 fee will be applied to their club dues. For example, Joan invites Sue to join her for the tea in May. Sue pays an additional fee of $2.50 over and above the cost of the tea. She has such a wonderful time she decides to join the club! She will pay only an additional $2.50 and her dues are paid up for the year.

IF YOU NEED TO CANCEL

If you find you are unable to attend an event you have reserved, please contact Sharon at the club office as soon as possible. This will allow time to contact the next person on the waiting list and you may be able to get a refund. Please, do not give your seat to a person who is not a member without contacting the club office first. This is not fair to those members who are on the waiting list.
