To all members: We know you are talking about SCC to your friends because they tell us the nice things you say about us. Often, new members come to us because an existing member has shared their positive experiences. We feel you are our best recruiters and we would like to show you how much we appreciate it...
Beginning in September 2021, if a new member joins SCC because you referred them to us, YOU will receive a discount on your next year's renewal cost.
*$25 off a social membership or $50 off a full membership* 

Please just ask your referral to let us know you sent them to us OR you can call us to tell us that we may be hearing from them. Either way, if they join SCC, WE think THEY WIN AND we think YOU should WIN! The way we see it, DOUBLE WINS are the best. Thanks in advance for sharing your SCC experiences with others.
