Monthly Membership Meeting
Tuesday, April 14th, 2026 7:00pm

Ft. Myer Spates Ballroom
Register To Attend
by Monday, April 6th

Our last meeting of the season will be on Tuesday, April 14th, at 7:00 pm, in Ft. Myer's Spates Community Club.  We expect to meet in the Ballroom.  Here's the link to a map showing the location of the Spates Club on Ft. Myer.

The evening will feature our annual campaign in support of Move United (nee Disabled Sports USA), which provides adaptive sports opportunities for people with disabilities to develop independence, confidence and fitness.  Please consider bringing your checkbook!

Our complimentary menu (to be confirmed) will include honey glazed ham, whole poached salmon, mixed green salad, pasta salad, and peach cobbler.  A cash bar will be available for the drinks of your choice.

Council Election

The evening will also feature our annual election of members to the club's leadership Council.  As we have three incumbent candidates for three positions on the Council (Dave Olsen, Steve Peirce, and Dina Zeese), we will ask for a vote by acclimation.

Registration Required

We're asking everyone to register to attend by Monday, April 6th – just a week before the meeting – so we can adjust the catering.

Bringing a Guest?

If you plan to come to the meeting with someone else, there are two ways to let us know:

• If your companion is a club member in their own right, they can log in with their credentials and register for the meeting much as they would do if signing up for a trip.
  
• Whether your companion is a club member or not, you can simply include them in your own meeting registration by clicking on the Add guest button before submitting your registration.

If Your Plans Change

If your plans change and you can no longer attend, please let us know (ideally by Monday, April 6th) so we can adjust our catering order.  You may do this by:

• Calling (301-579-2749) or emailing Dave Olsen
• Cancelling your registration yourself:
  
• • log into your account
  • click on your name at the top
  • click on My Event Registrations
  • click on your meeting registration
  • click on the Already registered link
  • click on the Cancel registration button

Entry to Ft. Myer
REAL ID Requirement

Ft. Myer has implemented a REAL ID Requirement (click for the full explanation on their website).  Briefly:

• All occupants of a vehicle should be prepared to present a REAL ID at the security checkpoint.
• • Any occupant who does not have a REAL ID-compliant state driver’s license will need to provide a second form of identification.  We suggest you check Ft. Myer's website for the list of acceptable ID.
• You should be able to enter the base as normal if you have an active duty, retired, or dependent military ID, or a DoD-issued Common Access Card (CAC).
• One-Day Access:   You might consider instead applying for a temporary/one-day access online at this website:
• • Select Other and indicate Pentagon Ski Club Meeting as  your Reason for Visit
  • If approved, you'll receive a text notification on your phone that links to your ID credential.  
  • Your application must normally be submitted at least four days in advance of your visit, but might be approved almost instantaneously depending on your footprint in various online systems.
