transportation service:
Based on several requests from our members who find driving at night to be a challenge the RPYC Board has approved paying the cost for private transportation service for select events.
Joan McMahon will be coordinating the requests, however you will be responsible for arranging your own transportation i.e. taxi, uber, private van, etc
. Once you have a paid receipt please get it to Joan and you will be reimbursed by the Club for the cost of your transportation.
Questions or additional info please feel free to contact Joan McMahon
