Need something notarized? AAA offers all basic notary services such as power of attorney, real estate transactions, affidavits, placard applications, certifying true and exact copies, and Pennsylvania Department of Treasury unclaimed property and rent rebates. AAA employees have undergone training and testing to become knowledgeable experts in performing notary duties. Mark the page, or pages, that need to be notarized if you are bringing in a large document. All signers must be present with a valid form of identification. Acceptable forms of ID must be current, government issued, have a photo, signature and physical description (for example, a state-issued driver’s license or passport). AAA employees are not permitted to witness any documents. Know what type of notarization you need prior to your arrival. (Acknowledgment, Jurat or other) This is especially important if the notarial certificate is not attached to your document! Ask the organization/person requiring the notarization to provide you with a notarial statement or to advise the type of notarial statement needed. Notaries cannot decide the type of notarization because type of notarization can have important legal ramifications. The cost for members is $5 per notary seal. The cost for non-members is $5 per notary seal + $3 clerical fee for each notary seal, for a total of $8 per notary seal. Notary services on personal documents are free for AAA Premier members. For more information call our Member Service Center at 1.800.441.5008. or visit your local AAA branch office.

etting to the departure port when you’re going on a cruise is an unavoidable element that often gets overlooked — and it can be a significant part of your vacation’s cost. That’s why AAA Travel and Celebrity Cruises® have teamed up to offer an extraordinary — but limited-time — opportunity to save as much as $500.00 per person on roundtrip economy-class airfare between your airport gateway city and your cruise departure port. To take advantage of this substantial savings, book an oceanview or higher stateroom and make a deposit at any AAA East Central travel agency location on any 2016 or 2017 sailing of 10 nights or longer with Celebrity Cruises. This offer will only be available for a limited time, so act now. Restrictions may apply. The remarkable airfare savings are just the start of what’s sure to be an equally remarkable cruise vacation. Discerning cruisers choose Celebrity because it’s the world’s leading premium cruise line; they choose it for its stylishly designed accommodations, globally inspired menus crafted by James Beard– featured chefs, amenities and activities to keep you busy (if you like) from morning until night and a level of service that is unsurpassed. But they also choose Celebrity because of a feeling. A sense that every aspect of every Celebrity cruise — every meal, activity, shore excursion and staff interaction — matters. That’s what makes Celebrity what it is and, ultimately, what sets it apart from other cruise lines. That’s Modern Luxury.SM

On a Celebrity cruise, you have up to 12 distinct restaurants to satisfy every one of your food moods. From Continental to Italian, sushi to French and everything in between, dining with Celebrity is an international experience all its own. Add in food-and-wine-pairing dinners expertly curated by sommeliers, craft cocktails and an extensive craft beer selection, and a meal on a Celebrity ship is sure to satisfy more than just your hunger; it satisfies your desire to dine on something new and delicious at every meal. With 1 staff member for nearly every 2 guests, Celebrity’s personal service anticipates your every need. Unobtrusively. Intuitively. Your stateroom attendant, your personal connection to the ship, is always there with a smile and a helping hand. In your stateroom, out by the pool, in the Canyon Ranch SpaClub® or anywhere at all at anytime, Celebrity’s onboard family goes the extra mile to ensure every aspect of your cruise turns out just the way you want it. From twicedaily stateroom service with a chocolate at turndown to providing a well-stocked minibar, everything’s customized for you.
