POSTER CONTEST
We are looking for the art work for the 45 TICC. Here are the guidelines for this contest.
Poster Contest Guidelines

The artwork that is chosen will not only become the official poster of the Terlingua International Chili Championship, but it will also possibly add to the development of the retail merchandise.
Ø The artist should design an initial draft of poster artwork. If selected, the artist will work with CASI staff in making changes and developing the final piece.
Ø Artwork must incorporate the following elements:
* Name of Event: Terlingua International Chili Championship
* Annual Designation: 45th Annual
* Date of Event: November 5, 2011
Ø Artist should keep in mind that the finished poster must also include the Sponsor Logos and pictures of the previous year’s winners.
Ø Artist should design artwork with the use of bold colors.
Ø Actual size of the finished poster must be 18" X 24" and artwork must be camera ready.
Ø If selected, artist agrees to relinquish ownership of artwork.
Ø If selected, artwork becomes the sole property of the Chili Appreciation Society International, Inc.

TABLE AND CHAIRS FOR KRAZY FLATS
At the Winter Board of Director's Meeting, it was decided to purchase 20 tables and 100 chairs for Krazy Flats to be used for the BBQ Contest and other activities. At the present time, if we need table and chairs at Krazy Flats, they must be carried to Krazy Flats from the Judging Pavilion and then returned for any activity requiring their use. This is causing extra wear and tear on them as well as the people who must get them from one place to the other. We do have the facility to store these at Krazy Flats.
If you or your pod would like to sponsor the purchase of either the tables or the chairs, we would welcome this. To purchase a table the price is $100.00. To purchase a set of 4 chairs, the price is $50.00. If you or your group would like to sponsor one or more of these items, please contact either David Sexton or myself. The checks should be made out to CASI and sent to either myself or David. David's address is
