According to an article in the September 1999 issue of National Guard magazine, RCI and Army Moral, Welfare and Recreation have teamed up to offer a new vacation club to members of the military and DOD civilians.

The article says: Active, Guard and Reserve service members and DOD civilians can sign up to participate in a new vacation club arranged between Army Morale, Welfare and Recreation and Resort Condominiums International, or RCI.

The deal, open to active and reserve component service members, military retirees, DOD civilians and any other persons eligible to use military morale, welfare and recreation offices, offers condominium unit rentals for $209 per week at selected resorts.

The normal rates are $600 to $1,500 per week in season, according to John Cully, RCI national vice president.

After Army MWR tested its Armed Forces Vacation Club at 18 military installations in the Washington, D.C., officials expanded the program nationwide last month.

It is currently not available for service members and civilians overseas, but Army officials say it may expand in the future. RCI is a timeshare exchange company affiliated with more than 3,500 timeshare resorts worldwide.
