DCNRHS membership is based upon a donation/ gift model, not dues. Your gifts helps to support our many programs. What are the programs and services our organization provides worth to you? Gifts are tax-deductible to the extent permitted by the IRS. Thank you.

When choosing your membership level, you will be asked to make a donation in any amount. That donation is all that we ask of you. Please note that the $35.00 option below is simply set to cover the costs of a printed newsletter, and is not in itself a donation.

NOTICE: Membership Purchase/Member Discount Trip Purchase Delay

If you are planning to purchase a membership in order to purchase our trips or tours at the member discounted rates, please be aware that the member discounted fares are not immediately available to you. Your membership records must be incorporated into our reservations system, a process which normally takes seven to ten days. You may contact our trip/tour reservations team at reservations@dcnrhs.org and ask that this process be expedited. After your request, usually within forty-eight hours, we will have you added to the system and will notify you when you will be able to successfully purchase trips at the reduced member fares. We apologize for the inconvenience.

NOTE: We appreciate our members and all our customers. However, refunds of the difference between a member and a non-member fare will not be issued to those who make a trip reservation before their membership is purchased, fully processed, and loaded into our ticketing system.
