Club BuildingIn order to remain in compliance with non-profit rules and TI finance procedures, the district cannot give clubscash reimbursement for open houses but feel it is important to showcase our clubs. As a symbol of pride, ifclub members pitch in and each brings a snack or treat to share, there should be no financial burden.Therefore, when clubs hold a successful Open House – they can earn a 2-Part Reward.
Part One – Receive a $25 TI Store gift certificate just for holding an Open House! Part Two – Receive another a $25 TI Store gift certificate for converting two (2) Open House guests to members within 30 days of your Open House!
