We invite you to join the Charlestown Chapter of MaCCRA, the Maryland Continuing Care Residents Association. MaCCRA is the only organization that represents residents living in continuing care retirement communities (CCRCs). MaCCRA exists to keep you informed about issues that impact CCRC residents and to speak on your behalf at the Maryland General Assembly and Department of Aging.

We believe that residents should have our voices heard on matters that concern our home, our investment and our health. MaCCRA has successfully added protections in the law to provide more security for our financial investment. The majority of our MaCCRA dues help fund Barbara Brocato, MaCCRA’s legislative liaison since 1994.

The website, MaCCRA.org, provides more details on MaCCRA’s accomplishments and current activities.

We hope that you agree and will join MaCCRA. The demands on your time will be kept to a minimum – we have two meetings per year supplemented with emails as events and issues occur.
Membership dues are $20 per year for an individual or $30 per year for a couple. Our fiscal year is July 1 to June 30. Dues are tax-deductible as a charitable contribution. Your check should be made payable to MaCCRA Charlestown Chapter and sent to the Chapter Treasurer, Victor Pyles (see his contact information in the Resident Directory). Simply fill in the form on the bottom, detach it and place it in an envelope with your check into the inter-campus mail box near your lobby desk.

Now its time to renew membership in MaCCRA. I have attached our Membership Renewal form. Please complete it and send it and your dues (check preferred, not required) to Victor Pyles. If you did not join last year, please consider joining this year.

We plan to put a paper form in your mail box if you do not have an email address.

If anyone with an email address would like a paper copy, please email Bob Larson, and he will put one in your mail box.

ALSO: MaCCRA members will be at tables at each restaurant on June 8th to take your membership dues and answer questions. The tables will be located at

Terrace and Fireside 11:30 -12pm and
CrossCreek and Atrium at 4:30 – 6:00pm

Dues are the same: $20 for one person and $30 for a family or a couple.
