NEWS ABOUT REGISTERING FOR LUNCHES

At each luncheon meeting, MTS Houston pays for lunches for people who registered but neither cancel in time nor show up. Rather than pass this added cost onto our regular attendees, from now on all people registering for lunches will need to pay IN ADVANCE, either online or by sending a check made payable to MTS Houston to MTS Houston, c/o Liz Stansfeld, 9300 Sandstone, Austin TX 78737. Those who register and do not pay in advance will be treated as 'walk-ins" and will be charged $50.00 at the door.
