&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;P&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;ay online with your&amp;nbsp;credit/debit card.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Registering online is the easiest and quickest way to register!.&amp;nbsp; You can pay with your credit/debit card.&amp;nbsp; &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;You can also pay at the door if you wish but please make your reservation online. NOTE:&amp;nbsp; If you're paying with cash, please consider paying by check.&amp;nbsp; If you're paying by check, please make the check out beforehand.&amp;nbsp; Make the check payable to MCARE.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;For registered guests that will be paying by cash or by check, we have 2 favors to ask.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;First, we encourage you to come prepared with a check rather than pay cash.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Second, please make your check made out beforehand. Be sure to make it payable to MCARE.&amp;nbsp; NOTE:&amp;nbsp; The price for each luncheon may change so be sure to check your registration invoice.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This will make the check in process go much quicker. When paying by cash, it can slow everything down.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Your cooperation is most appreciated.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Thank you for all your help and support.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Any questions contact Gene Pennington, President.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;E-mail:&amp;nbsp; President@MCAREINfo.org - Phone:&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;(415) 254-3839.&lt;/p&gt;
