A true TC yearbook would require a regular annual release date since new people join TC all the time. Also, year after year, events change. As such, the events and members for that respective year would be included in that years book and would change for the following and subsequent years.

Its a task that would require regular information and picture gathering, that would have to be re-started every year and ideally, would not be region specific and include people and events not just in the United States but all around the globe (such as the grand opening of Tabu Tiki Room in Berlin, etc) as the tiki "scene" is not limited to the US (just ask Tiki Diablo and King Kuku who travel to Europe to work on tiki bars).... It sounds like a lot of work.

Plus, considering the amount of active members that attend events regularly, how does one decide what events and who is included in this yearbook? The person(s) putting it together would ultimately have the last word in selecting those people and/or events included the book. Favoritism can certainly rear its ugly head and can cause big problems.

I'm not trying to discourage the project, I just don't think anybody really realizes how much work a good yearbook would actually require.
