you guys are claiming 3000 members and membership cost 25 dollars a year right thats alot, 75,000 to be exact, you also have forum sponsors another couple of grand and jim is selling saleen stuff on ebay to benefit soec another couple of thousand there maybe,
75,000 membership
2,500 forum sponsers as you claim 40,000 hits a month
2,500 selling stuff on ebay
80,000 lets call it per year
now your expenses you email everything and pdf the qtr letter so no cost there, no postage, you do all the in house stuff, lets say the website and forums cost you 50 bucks a month , i think scoa's is 10 bucks, you produce none of your own shows and in new england i have never even seen a a soec member at a show ,is it possible you have no members up here. you piggback a couple of shows a year like carlie and probably had to buy your own tents i'm gonna be generous and say you spend 5 grand a year piggy backing major shows
so thats
600 a year for the websites
5,000 for piggybacking the major shows as you don't do your own shows
4,400 just to be fair
10,000 total expenses
now if you do have 3,000 menbers which would make you more popular than the shelby club thats a club i want to be a member of alot of saleen brothers. what the hell happen to 70,000 dollars per year
possibles
#1 somebody is getting paid an inappropiate amount of money as you are a nonprofit and that money should be used for the saleen community, in the world of non profit 90% of the funds should go to the beneficiary, not costs.
#2 you don't have 3000 members
look guys, like greg i would consider being a member of both clubs but what do i get for my money??
amnit: why did you re-register after banning yourself?
