IMPORTANT NOTICE!

World Headquarters–Transactions Postponed for Inventory

Add new members, file new club charter forms, file educational award applications, and order all supplies for mid-winter Club Officer Training, etc BEFORE December 15, 2006 (i.e. received at TI WHQ in California).

As part of TI's inventory process, which is required by law, we will be unable to process the following transactions between Saturday, December 16, 2006 through January 7, 2007.

This includes submissions online and/or by mail:

• Supply

• New member kits

• Charter kits

• Education award certificates (including free advanced manuals)

Submissions received by Friday, December 15, 2006, 11:59 p.m., PT, will be

processed and shipped, with one exception – orders that require engraving

must be received by Wednesday, December 13, 2006, 11:59 p.m., PT.

Between December 16 and January 7, supply orders, applications for

educational awards and applications for new members cannot be

entered online. Any of those items, as well as new club charter forms

received by mail will be held and processed after January 7.

We suggest you hold your submissions until January 8 and then enter

the information online. This is the fastest way to get your materials.

HELPFUL HINTS:

If you know you will need materials during this time, place your order

in early December so you will have the materials you need and you

won't be disappointed. Have some Competent Communication and

Competent Leadership manuals on hand to give to new members if

they join your club during this time. Once they have submitted their

application and check and have been voted into your club, you can

give them a set of manuals to get started. Then, when they receive

their new member kit they can turn the manuals over to the club.

The club can then give the manuals to other new members as they

join while they are waiting for their new member kit.
