Please register now if you plan to attend. It is very important for you to register. We order meals based on how many people register. We don’t want to waste money on meals that are not going to get eaten, and we don’t want to waste meals, so please help us by registering in advance.
If you do not register in advance, you will receive a handwritten name badge when you arrive on site. You will be asked to wait to get in line until all pre-registered attendees have gotten their meals.
In addition, for this year’s TTI Day, each attendee will receive a really cool gift. Each employee will be offered 1 ticket to the Texas A&M Men’s baseball game against South Carolina for May 17, 2018 at 6:30 p.m.
