Believe fees for Unit games are $10.00/. That seems about right. Thank you for correcting
me on the $150.00. We may need to operate at a loss for now as we get things moving
again.

Folks,
My 2 cents to the conversation.
First what is the 'normal' fee for a director in these type of games?, by that
I mean small groups - 12- 20 tables.
My experience helping with the Monthly Unit games - lots of people volunteer
(uncompensated) for their efforts, and everyone is eager to help make for a successful
experience. The board members volunteer to get the food, and find the most delicious food
at the lowest cost possible. They do not charge for the cost of gas to get this possible.
Of course we do get it delivered and tip the person who delivers it.
Again my experience, collecting the fees, either $8 or $10 depending on the unit game
function, I found that a number of people (not everyone) seemed not happy. Then there were
people who did not eat the food for whatever the reason. I was kind of confused as to what
the problem, was with respect to the fee, my personal opinion is that this was not a big
cost, given that (in my opinion) these people are fairly affluent, but again I may be way
out of line.
Back to the question of the fee for the Director- obviously any game that is held, needs
to collect enough funds to pay for the cost of holding the game.
I will stop here
Regards and all stay safe
Michael

We actually did talk about $150 at the meeting, not less than that. I don’tknow what
directors typically are paid for one session, but I would be more on board with charging
more to the players, like $1 more per person than giving our director less money.
Certainly not less than $150. We pay $5 per person to play virtual club games on line so
it should cost more to play face to face bc of facility rentals and the amount of work
involved.
But even at say $7 per person (and I pay $10 per person to play at the 750 club) and
having 12 tables, that is only about $350 total so with Diane charging $200 and Marie even
at $150, we lose money. Maybe we really need to think about increasing card fees.
That is my 3 cents.

Two board members objected to asking Marie to take a cut in pay from $200 to $125.
Please let me know your feels in the issue, and I will act accordingly. Thanks.
