Current WCR Funds (4-22-2010):
PayPal Balance: $1,901.10 USD after withdrawing $902.26 for the t-shirts
edit: James Knowlton actually overpaid by $10
I'm thinking we should include the T-Shirts. We can get them for $6-7 each and there's plenty of breathing room in the funds.
I feel like asking people to shell out for shirts as well will inspire "what are we paying for" questions. So if we can swing it, I think we should do it.
Ok..why dont we give it a day or two to make sure enough funds are rolling in, then maybe as an incentive to register early, we say they will be free to those who register by the first date, any later than that and maybe they are $5?$10?
Yeah, subsidized would be fine. Or as an incentive to register early.
I like the incentive plan, reg by x date get the shuirt free, by y date cost $

As long as that got brought up, I have not heard from the Schippers since we decided on the art work. I sent him a followup PM today.
I am fine with the get the free shirt if you register in the first period. We should also sell t-shirts to people who want to buy but cannot come. I have several from events around the country and can't be the only one who is interested. $20 shipped?
We'll need an single color version of the artwork or maybe a version with only two or three colors.
Right now the artwork has about 7 colors. But even that would still only be $10 per shirt.
Copy that! I will get out a request for single color and 2-3 color.

updated...we broke into quadruple digits!
Do we have any sort of budget yet? If someone gets me some general prices, we could start to put some costs together based on say, 75 people. Might be good to know what we need to break even.
Yopu is doing the nametags at her cost which is $8.00 each.
Consider $10 each for a shirt.
ok....Jim, I think there was a number thrown around for the BBQ per person but I can't find it...any insight? Then I can get a rough budget going

Now we should start seeing some snowball effects. Ever since we crossed over $1,000, we are now earning a whopping .06% interest from paypal.
I figure if we can put off the event for 340,000 years, all the planners can retire:)
Thanks Jim...I'll start working on a spreadsheet so we have an idea of what kind of money we have to work with.
You're rockin' it Brett!
Ok, so it looks like it will cost is $28/person so far...I'll round up to $30 to be safe.
BTW...we need to define who gets shirts, etc since at $28/person, that means the "extra" people members bring, we are only breaking even if they get a shirt/dinner/badge(though I doubt they would get a badge)
Thats what I was thinking too Rob...I doubt the extra people will even care about t-shirts too. if they do, they can buy one:)
As cheap as the T-shirts sound like they will be, I will probably buy a half dozen if I can get them at our cost!
Yeah, shirts for primary participant only. Extra shirts cost extra.
FYI, crunching some numbers, if we could get 247.75 more people to sign up for WCR, we'd have enough extra money to buy 914club.com:)
Sounds good to me...I never got a chance to use it on the Tacoma. It worked great on the sand rail and 914 though!

Got the shirt quote back. For a full color back logo and a front chest logo, it's $1000 for 60 shirts. Which is about $17 per shirt.
I can resubmit the quote with a B&W rear back logo and it'll be cheaper.
Yikes...what happened to $6-7 per shirt??
a $10 difference is going to screw up the budget if we give one to each person registered.
I know we had breathing room in the budget since we are charging $50 but with 12 people not paying (planners and their guests) that really hurts making up the difference.
Mark and I spoke the other night and he's going to get a new quote for fewer shirts.
I'm also totally willing to pay for my 'stuff' and it means the difference between blowing our budget or not, then everyone here should too. At least for the tags and shirts.
Closing in on the $2k mark.
