Fall in Love with NACE!
To celebrate the season, NACE is beginning its fall membership campaign, Fall in Love with NACE,on Tuesday, September 22, 2009. To show our appreciation not only to potential members, renewing members will have the opportunity to renew on time or before their expiration date to take advantage of a special renewal rate.
New Member Offer
For $295 (that’s right, a $100 savings!) potential members can enjoy the many benefits the National Association of Catering Executives has to offer! The offer is good for new members or for members who have lapsed on their membership for more than a year.
Renewing Member Offer
Do you love NACE and all that it has to offer? Do you wish there was a way to save on your renewal fee? If you answered “yes” to these questions, then we have a special offer just for you. Renew your membership on time or before your expiration date and pay only $295 (that’s right, a $50 savings!).
Student Membership Drive Got students? As we say farewell to summer, students are saying hello to books, homework and NACE! Now is the perfect time to recruit student members to your chapter. All across the country, colleges and universities hold organizational fairs in the fall to introduce students to organizations on and off campus. The National office has materials available to help make your student recruitment efforts go smoothly. Please contact me to receive the latest student membership brochure and application. The chapters who recruit the most student members (new and renewals) will receive a prize for one lucky student member.
Offers are valid September 22- November 20, 2009. Fall Campaign Discount Code for online use: FC09.

As a Chapter, we are trying to be as “GREEN” as possible, and having you return your name tags will decrease the number of replacement tags that we have to provide each meeting.
