District & Chapters
The roster below lists TRI Chapters Now Organizing AND Areas with sufficient members for chartering TRI Chapters. We are trying to keep these grouping within a reasonable distance although some may include members as much as 75 miles from one another. Chapters will likely change as new members create Chapters closer to their hometowns.
Starting a Chapter is as simple as getting seven other current TRI members together as the founding members for that
Chapter and deciding who is going to be the Chapter Director, the Assistant Chapter Director and the Treasurer. Remember, the Treasurer cannot be a family member of live in the same household as the Chapter or Assistant Chapter Director. Each Chapter must be chartered with TRI and to do that you should seek out a local dealer to sponsor your new TRI Chapter by paying the $50.00 charter fee, or as some do, split the charter fee amongst themselves and when the Chapter finances are built the $50.00 can be repaid to those members that contributed to
the Charter fee.
After you have decided who is going to run the Chapter, and who will be taking care of the Chapter finances, contact Lisa Wert kitchenpamperer@aol.com or call me at 612-781-2540 and let me know you are ready to start having fun so that he can get the necessary paperwork completed.
