Major expenses
So...you want to know why the cost is $50.00 per person? Here's a breakdown of our major expenses:
| Expense | Total |
| Site reservation fee (balance) | $1,742.00 |
| Deposit to reserve reunion site | $1,000.00 |
| Liability insurance | $390.00 |
| Legal fees to incorporate reunion committee | $176.80 |
| Website address | $50.00 |
| State incorporation fee | $20.00 |
| PO Box | $20.00 |
| | |
| Grand total | $3,398.80 |
If 100 people show up, that's $33.39 per person.
If 150 people show up, that's $22.66 per person.
If 200 people show up, that's $16.99 per person.
On top of those expenses, we need to cover food for something between $15.00 and $25.00 per person. You can do the math, which explains why we can't make it any cheaper. The class reunion committee is organized as a non-profit corporation, which means that no one is allowed to make a profit from organizing the event. We're just trying to cover our expenses. Believe it or not, this was the most economical option we could find.
