2024 duClay Chapter Annual Challenge
Step 1 - Choose up to 10 items that you want to finish between January 1 and November 30. The projects can be WIPs, new 2024 starts, finishing (must be finished by the stitcher) and can be any size. WIPs should be no more than 75% complete on January 1 (for existing members) or the pledge date (for new members).
Step 2 – Place a value on each item that you hope to finish. Your commitment pledges can range from $1-$10 for a small (5x5 inches or less than 25 square inches) and $1-$20 for everything else. Pledges must be given in whole dollar amounts. A portion of full coverage pieces can be included by page or section, whatever your goal is for 2024.
Step 3 – Complete your Challenge form and give it or email it to the Challenge Chair. Your check payable to duClay in the amount of your commitment pledges can be given to the Challenge Chair or mailed to the Treasurer. Pledges can also be made through PayPal, please make sure to include a comment that the money is for the Challenge. Challenge form and $ are due no later than February 28 (for existing members).
Step 4 - When you finish a project, email a photo to the Challenge Chair.
Mid Year (July Business Meeting) - Members are able to "swap" one project on their challenge list for a project not on their list and/or add a project. A swap is considered an even exchange without any change to pledge funds. Anyone who has finished at least one project will be entered into a drawing for a $25 prize.
Step 5 – Between November 30 and the December meeting, the Challenge Chair will conduct a final touch base to ensure an accurate record of all finishes.
Step 6 - At the December Holiday party, the participants who have finished projects will have the opportunity to win money back. If we collect over $1000 in total, one member will win 50% of the non-chapter funds, one member will win 30% of the non-chapter funds and a third member will win 20% of the non-chapter funds. If we collect less than $1000, one member will win 100% of the non-chapter funds.
For each project that has been completed, the member will receive a group of unique numbers based on the amount pledged. Example: $3 pledged for a finished project will result in 3 numbers being assigned for that member. A random number generator will determine the winning number(s). After the main prizes, all other participants will be entered into a drawing for a $50 prize.
Winners – Winners of the drawings will have a check mailed to them by the Treasurer after the Treasurer and WIP Challenge Chair coordinate the exact amounts.
