Discussion of the guest pricing for dinners
We discussed how the cost of dinner’s have increased and we have not increased our prices. The clubs dues are subsidizing the dinners. Is this what the dues are for? At the current time we have potential members to be a guest of their sponsor and pay $25.00 guest that are not potential members should have a higher cost than members. Discussed $45 and $50 – we tabled discussed and will bring this to the next board meeting.
