2013 I&E Chapter Challenge Could Mean $1000 For Your Chapter

A little friendly competition never hurt anyone, right? With the I&E Chapter Challenge NAFA's aiming for a bit of fun rivalry, as well as helping to boost the I&E attendance numbers in a year when the conference is being held in such a centrally-located city. Atlantic City is close to many members -- within a days’ drive, and this year that closeness can put $1000 into your chapter's coffers.

There will be two contests with two awards for each contest: one contest for chapters designated by NAFA as "local" to the I&E site, namely the following group of selected, "drivable" chapters: New Jersey; Philadelphia; New York-InterCounty; Greater Hartford; Chesapeake; and Nation’s Capital chapters; and one contest for all other remaining NAFA chapters. The Challenge is open for all official NAFA chapters (subchapters are not included).

For each contest, the chapter with the most chapter members to attend wins; and the chapter with the highest percentage of their chapter roster to attend I&E wins. NAFA will award up to $1,000 to each winning chapter for the sole use of creating or producing their own NAFA chapter clothing, hat, towel, or other premium item to then distribute to their chapter membership as they see fit!

So how are winners to be determined?

The chapter rosters as of April 30, 2013 will be used
Any official I&E registration category counts with the exception of spouse/guest registrations. Guest/spouse registrations and additional meal tickets will not be counted
All NAFA membership categories will count
Winners will be announced within six weeks post-I&E (during week of June 3, at the latest)
Official post-show I&E registration list will be used in weeks following the close of the 2013 event
