Do Ambassadors have licensing rights to use the Kenilworth Cookbook Club™ name?

As an Ambassador, you agree to represent the Kenilworth Cookbook Club™ brand honorably and respectfully. All content created as a result of a Kenilworth Cookbook Club™ experience is property of Cookbook Club, LLC. The license agreement renews every year.

How often are events?

The cadence for how often your Cookbook Club gathers is up to you. We do suggest consistency. Whether you meet up every month, or once a quarter, you decide what works best for your group. 

Can there be more than one Kenilworth Cookbook Club™ in my community?

It depends on the size of your "community." We prefer Ambassadors to lead micro-communities vs overseeing large cities. For example, we're interested in Ambassadors in Wicker Park or Lincoln Park vs. Chicago. 

What do we look for in a Kenilworth Cookbook Club™ Ambassador?

Here are five (5) qualities:

• You're a connector: you love to bring people together, make memories and create a sense of community

• You're a do-er: organizing a Kenilworth Cookbook Club™ is a big responsibility and involves many moving pieces. Motivation and a willingness to get things done is a big part of making it work.

• You're a communicator: a key part of your role is communicating effectively, timely, and positively to your community. Having an influential and vulnerable voice in your communication style is essential.

• You're a giver: it takes a certain personality to successfully lead a community, maintain interest and inspire action. This Kenilworth Cookbook Club™ isn't about you - it's about bringing people together and creating connections for others.

• You're inclusive: the best part about Kenilworth Cookbook Club™ is when diverse groups of people come together with one single purpose - to feast. Everyone is invited to Cookbook Club and inclusivity is at our core.

Is applying first-come, first-served?

No, not necessarily; however, we do recommend signing up as soon as you can. If we find a candidate we really like, we’ll grant them the Ambassador role.
