Get a "Taste" of CSI - Cincinnati Style

As a way to encourage potential members and encourage current Chapter members to bring in new members, current members may bring a prospective member to one or our regular Chapter meetings for FREE.

The Fine Print:

Any person who is considering membership in our Chapter may take advantage of this offer, however they may do so only once a year.
Current members may bring as many prospective members a year or at a time as they wish (within reason.)
Advanced registration of prospective members planning to attend a regular meeting is required so that we can order the correct number of meals for the meeting and recognize him or her during our meeting. Please give David Proudfit the name(s) of your prospective member(s) when you RSVP for that meeting.
Prospective members include CSI members who belong to another Chapter or no chapter at all (At-Large Members).
Encourage all persons in the A/E/C community to Buy Into CSI!
