A NEW SPONSOR PROGRAM
Greetings CASI
As part of our continuing quest to improve program quality for CASI cooks, the Friends of CASI sponsors will band together to underwrite the cost of TICC awards. This group of sponsors will now be responsible for the cast metal TICC trophies, the TICC winner jackets, and a new award to be initiated this year: TICC winner chairs. These chairs will be embroidered with the place and category of the recipient and hopefully promote CASI and TICC to all who see them. In addition, all proceeds received over the cost of these items will be used toward a Friends of CASI Scholarship.
I am seeking additional participants for this group. Sponsor benefits will include:
Embroidered sponsor shirt
Recognition Plaque
Recognition on national CASI poster
Promotion on a special monthly page in the Terlingua Trails
Group photo with the TICC first place trophy
Introduction at GP meeting and all sponsor functions
Our goal is $11,500.00 annually. We are already over half way there and excited about the prospects. This group will be a support group for CASI and seek ways to recognize the winners. The cost to join is not prohibitive and you can see your dollars at work. You can join as a business, individual, or group. This is a good and worthwhile opportunity.
Call or email me for details. I look forward to hearing from you.

In this email, I also included the application for running for a CASI Director position. Later this week I will send the hard copies to those who have requested it or for those I do not have an email address. This report is not due back to me until August 15, but if you have the information earlier, please send it to me so that I can begin processing your information. Thanks to all of you for doing a GREAT job this year. I am posting the registration form again for those of you who have not completed it and sent it back to Dave Hewlett either by email or snail mail. His address is email to davehewlett@msn.com and his snail mail address is Dave Hewlett, 802 Horizon Dr. Murphy, TX, 75094.
