Ok...you can only join the Safari Club for the RFC by visiting a restaurant; but since I don't live near one there's no way for me to do that. I was wondering how much it was and if I could convince someone to sign me up if they were near a RFC and I gave them the membership fee money :) Thanks for the help!!
 
We don't have one near us either, but on our March trip, we bought a membership during our meal & they gave us the discount.....it pretty much paid for itself (since we were a bigger group). I believe it was $15.00.
 
We are going to be at DLR tomorrow afternoon. If I have a chance to stop by RFC I will pick up an application. Do you know what the fee is to join? No mention online.

Okay, here's some information I found on anther site
What that means in English is that there's a $15 enrollment fee to join the club. You get a paper temp card right away and then when everything is processed, you'll get a plastic card in the mail along with a $10 gift certificate good at any Rainforest restaurant. Usually, on your birthday, they'll send you a gift certificate ($5 or $10 - I forget which) as well. I'm not sure what happens with the points you rack up when you visit. There's no set list of things you get like I've seen with other theatre/restaurant club cards. The best thing about the card, imo, other than the 10% discount on food (and maybe merchandise - I forget), is that without a reservation, you can walk up to the blue elephant (reception desk), show them your card, and then for a party of no more than 6, you'll get quicker seating than regular walk-ups. It's a huge convenience if you're near a Rainforest Cafe and apt to go on a regular basis and don't want to have to endure the often-long lines. I got my card when the Rainforest at DTD Anaheim was opened. If you know ahead of time that you'll be visiting, you can call the location at least 24 hours in advance for a reservation, regardless of whether you're a Safari Club member.

So it looks like it's $15 to join. If I pick up an application for you when are you going? If it's 4-6 weeks away then you would get the hard plastic card in the mail with the $10 certificate in time.
 
Like a previous said, you can join when you are there and receive the discount on the spot. The certficate does arrive around your birthday.

I'm not going until October so that'll be perfect, I wanted to get it all done ahead of time :) Thanks so much!
 
Here's the phone number for the main office in Houston, TX - 800-552-6379. I'm not sure if they can sign you up over the phone but it's worth a try. The call is free!
 
I live in San Antonio and can do it for you if you would like. One of the benefits is a $10 gift certificate but it expires about 3 months after you receive it. You will be able to use it in conjuction with the 10% discount or the free appetizer.
Also if you do not have priority seating arranged at RFC, you can get it when you check in or calling in same day. We called our local RFC during Spring Break and they were full. When I told them I had a membership they fit us in at the time we wanted!

If the $10 exp. in 3 months I think the best way to handle it would be for me to pick up the form for you and mail it to you. Then you could get it back to me with the $15 and I could take it to RFC at least 6 weeks before your trip.

Unless of course you can handle it all through the 800 number PP posted.

Since I'm going to DLR today anyway, I will try to get to RFC and pick up the application (I think I may grab some extras, just in case others are interested.)
 
Sorry, I'm blocked out today so we didn't get in.:confused3 I'll check back here before our next visit (in May) and if you still need it I'll get it then.
