Thank you for your support of the Imperial Court of Buffalo (ICOB). We look forward to your official ICOB event. All net proceeds from official, sanctioned ICOB events are distributed to our Charities of Choice.

  3. After completing the form hit “SUBMIT” the Monarchs will be notified to approve the form and then the Secretary will give the final approval from the Board of Directors
  4. Once the Board approves the form, you will receive an email indicating all parties have approved it.
  5.  The Board may ask you to attend a Board meeting to discuss your event. This BOD meeting is your opportunity to answer any questions the BOD may have about your event. Please make every effort to attend this meeting. (Not attending may delay the approval of your event)

Event Advertising:

            ALL advertising for your event must be approved by the BOD. Posters should be submitted at least 30 days in advance of the event (exceptions will be considered on a case by case basis). Please see the guidelines for advertising in the Policies and Procedures Manual; Article 17.
