Party Information: The house is allowed up to $75 per house
party. $20 per business function. All receipts must be submitted to the
Treasurer for reimbursement. Reimbursement in excess of the allowance
must be voted upon by the members at a business meeting prior to the
function. The host shall provide sodas and waters for the guests. All parties are BYOB. No illegal drugs are allowed. The host
is allowed two free guests. First time, height qualified prospective members are FREE!
Guidelines for
party entrance fees: The
following should be charged at the door for admission to house parties:
With food: Members $5, Non-members $7; without food: $10 for
Members and $12 Non-members. Exceptions to these standard
charges can be made with the approval of the Social Chair, President or
VP.
Of course, there might be special circumstances where you might want to
charge different amounts depending on the event. For instance, if
you are having a Bunko party and want to have cash prizes at the end,
you can charge an extra fee for those who want to participate in that
activity. Set up a spot for collection of the fees with a
container for the money and a sign-up list for the guests.
Sometimes it is helpful to have a Greeter who can inform guests that a
fee is due and where the collection site and sign-up list are.
There is never an entrance fee for business meetings for members or
prospects. However, if
a House Party is combined with a business meeting, the normal entrance fees
will be charged for those who want to stay after the
meeting is over. Again, first time prospects are always FREE.
Fees for Special Events, such as the Anniversary Dinner or the Fall Tall
Ball, shall be decided by the event committee depending on the expenses
incurred for the particular event.
