I believe the first item up is MHC ConSuite. Whatever funds that don't get donated will need to come from the treasury to pull it off.

During Mile Hi Con, Taeriel donated $40 toward defraying Obi_Wannabe's costs of purchasing food and supplies. If anyone else can donate some money, it would be greatly appreciated. A full accounting will be done by the November meeting.
If you'd like to donate via PayPal, the email address is: rmff.treasurer@yahoo.com.

Before Mile Hi Con, we had a balance of $119.09. Taeriel donated $40 to the treasury and we had a PayPal dividend of 50 cents, for a grand total of $159.59.
Mile Hi Con expenses for food and supplies was $186, according to Obi_Wannabe. We would be in the red by $26.41, however, O_W decided that he would donate the balance so we would break even. Major props to him for his generosity!
As of November 8th, we have a balance of $0.
If you would like to donate any money to the RMFF coffers, you can give me cash at a meeting or send it via PayPal to: rmff.treasurer@yahoo.com.

The RMFF PayPal account is an unverified, non-premium account. Thus it can receive eCheck, checking account, and PayPal fund-backed payments. Those are free to accept and free to send.
The account is not set up to receive credit card-backed payments as PayPal would take their percentage and I'd like to see as much money stay with the RMFF as possible.
So when you make your payments, please make sure they are not credit card backed payments, or else they will be denied. Thanks for your help!

After the last round of t-shirt sales, we have...$129.00 in the kitty. Spend it wisely, eh, RMFF? Don't go and blow it all on a crazy night on the town and wake up in the gutter wondering where it went and what happened to your shoes and why your right leg feels like it's on fire.
Well, I guess you can, so long as you have your receipts and it's considered "RMFF business."

Tha annual BBQ never draws from the fund, as it is all voluntary/pot luck

ArchaicRebel posted: And that, I believe is why the decision was made that we should pay for the stickers we want and like the earlier plan said... build into the price of "our" stickers the cost of some extras to hand out as freebies. So, for the individual cost of our stickers, we get a few "communal" stickers to hand out at events and stuff. Depending on how much they run. And that way, the one other thing we disburse treasury funds for doesn't get shorted when it comes time.
gra-co_o_hun posted: the only reason I would lean more towards not using the RMFF funds, is that by offering to pay for these as members and a few not-so-regular people, we fill the coffers up for the time we do decide to, as you said JT, not make our money back. I'm not opposed to spending some of the group money for it either as long as it is agreed by everyone, but this started as a novelty for personal desire amongst us. Does it really warrant us making a run of more than we need?
not trying to spark a flame, just my 2 cents.
ZOOfo-Dyas posted: If we were going to have a giveaway, I'd rather it be for something that other people are actually going to use, or that we can reach the largest # of number at the best cost... A $3-5/person item is not the way to do it. There are things like temporary tattoos, mini-stickers, lanyards, etc.
Additionally, we have the Breast Cancer Walk coming up, plus the Halloween Party, not to mention the need for some materials/displays for upcoming conventions. While apparent freebies may be nice, that's not why many of us got into this stuff. Believe me, I'd have a lot nicer car if I had never found this group of lunatics. I don't even want to try and quantify how much I've spent in the name of the group in that time.
I understand that you've spent a lot of money for RMFF activities, Zoo. That was your choice and I'm sure you made them without the intention of getting paid back. You shouldn't have to do that in the future, though, if the funds are going towards an RMFF event/item.
I think this is excellent discussion and I believe that anytime we talk of spending money, the final decision should rest with our decision-making body...the council. That's why we created it and elected people, right?
So let's wait until we have final artwork, final pricing, and a tally of how many people want one (perhaps at the BBQ?) and then decide if we want to spend treasury funds on them. Because if there's one thing this group can do well, it's debate an issue into limbo on the boards.
gra-co_o_hun posted:lDoes it really warrant us making a run of more than we need?
I say yes because it is something that is RMFF based (like the shirt) and would be cool to have as a member or to give away at events like Starfest to promote ourselves. I don't think that using RMFF funds for the Breast Walk (like a donation? or do you mean shirts?) would be good as not all of us participate in it...just like the camping trip last year. I'm all for the Cancer Walk and think it's a great thing. I just would imagine that the shirts would be done like your Broad Squad shirts where you got them made outside of the group and paid for them yourselves.
Unless it is voted on by the council and the general group concurs that we're doing the Walk as an official group function. It's a distinction, but one we should make.
