2007 Membership Drive

Thank you for your ongoing interest and support of the Turkish American Cultural Association of Michigan (TACAM). 2006 calendar year was once again filled with activities, get togethers, new friends and we could not have done it without your participation.

Our pledge was to make this year a huge success with our activities and bring everyone together at TACAM – committees were set up to organize many events, programs, educational and cultural activities; the newsletter and web-site continued to be conduits of information to members and friends; Yeni Turku concert left us with unforgettable memories and many more! Now, as we look at the upcoming year, TACAM needs your support to continue the pace and make 2007 even more successful.

Your continued support of TACAM via volunteering, membership dues and donations are vital to the success of TACAM. To TACAM’s members for this year, “thanks” for your continued support!
