The TAC Summer Events Committee

How many times have you arrived at an away event and wished that you had a few supplies to get you through until you could get to a shop?

The Local Hospitality team will put together a small bag of “goodies” for you, and it will be ready and available at the registration desk when you arrive for either TCW or Summer School.  The cost is $20, and all profits will be transferred directly to the TAC General Fund.  This bag of goodies will include things like tea, coffee, sugar, fruit, juice, chocolate, cookies, crackers, cheese, and salty snacks. 

                                Deadline for ordering kits is July 15, 2024
