2025 Annual Convention

Amana, Iowa

 

  

 

Thanks for joining us at the 2025 Convention

 
Convention 2025 is Set!
By Sue Chrisman, Vice President & Convention Chair
 
2025 is off to a great start as we kick off Tea Leaf Club International’s 45th Annual Convention to be held at the Hotel Millwright in Amana, Iowa. Mark your calendars for September 11 -14, 2025.
 
The name Amana means to remain true. Sapphire is the color for 45 years. What better place to celebrate true blue Tea Leaf Club members and welcome new members? 
 
We hope you are inspired to celebrate 45 years with us in Amana. I look forward to seeing many of you in September.
 
Auctions
There will be two auctions taking place at the convention.  Saturday afternoon is the Box Lot sale.  We have no idea what might be consigned to this auction.  Attendees are free to bring whatever items they wish to sell and we won't see the consigned treasures until Saturday morning.
 
The second sale is Saturday evening and in order to have items in the evening auction, they need to have been consigned prior to the July 1 deadline.  Feel free to download a copy of the Consignment Auction catalog below.
 
A note about bidding.  The sale is open ONLY to those Tea Leaf Club Members who have registered for the convention and will be present on Saturday to place bids.  We do not accept absentee bids.  You need to be there to participate.
