:: Welcoming New Friends ::
* mandatory for all HOF members *
Here at The House of Friends, we do not have a separate welcoming or reception committee. We believe because we are friends, that it is up to each of us as friends, to welcome our newcomers to The House of Friends. All of our HOF members are friends in the group, and together we welcome our newly joined friends by signing their guestbooks, sending ecards, or by sending each of them our warmest hello's by personal email! HOF members are notified by the New Friends Director, with an email notification as to when a new friend joins us. Since this is the first impression of our group, each member will have 5 days to offer their warmest welcomes to our new friends as we don't like to keep a good friend waiting :)
