  • We had a meeting last night

    • Taylor: "I was asleep"
  • We have approved ticket prices (Alistair thought it had already happened, but it's happened for sure now)
  • Tickets will be $100 earlybird, $110 standard
  • Alistair has shared the budget with Taylor
  • Taylor trusts that Jackie can use the coles catalogue
  • The food budget is $18pp, with actual estimates coming up to just under $17pp. Doing part of the food buy at spudshed will give us even more breathing room.
  • Our maximum/expected income (assuming all 50 earlybird) will be $5000. $4050 of that will be accomodation costs (IF we get 50 attendees). If we budget $18pp for food, then that's $900. Leaving us $50 profit. Any late-bird buyers will be additional profit. Snack sales made during the event are also considered profit.
