In past years, this has been a very popular trip. To be fair to everyone, rooms are on a first-come, first-serve basis. We have had more members who want to attend than there are rooms available. Therefore, you should act promptly. Last year all the rooms were taken in the first 2 days or so.
TO ATTEND, YOU MUST COMPLY WITH THE FOLLOWING:
- MEMBERSHIP: You AND your roommate must be members of the Outdoor Club of South Jersey in good standing.
- MEETUP: Click the “attend” button on the OCSJ Meetup site. A necessary step for messaging information to attendees, and so the leaders and participants can see who is going. Please take your name off the "attend" list if you are unable to get a Chalfonte reservation.

o The Chalfonte Hotel will call to get your information: credit card number, name and email address.
o The entire amount must be paid by you at that time with a credit card.
