RE: Need some info guys
Hi Michael,
I CD an event hosted by a small, informal club. As such, I set the fees. I try to charge as little as possible, but enough to insure the club makes a few bucks and I can pay the per -pilot IMAC fees. We do the lunches on a "donation" basis, so food is not an expense that needs to be covered by entry fees.
However, I do think that the host club should have control of the fees if they so desire - after all it's their field.
I'm a member of a second club that requires a budget submission prior to event approval. This forces the CD to consider all expenses and allows the club to evaluate the event cost and potential profit.
Hope that helped.
Dan
