Ok people, Heres the issue:
I need to know how many people want this field. Im not sure what kind of math everyone is doing. But it will take 7 people to pay for it. I know that $50 a month is going to kill most people (sarcastic) but I need to know.
I would also like to inform the members that:
Your not going to get players by telling them they have to drive 45 minutes away, to play in someones back yard, or in an area the size of my Apt. We are trying to make something bigger and better than a little backyard game, we're trying to make something that people are going to want to get involved in and come back to. Pirate and I have done nothing more than ask around to people that seem interested, and have already gotten at least 5-10 people that are wanting to play, who have guns, are ready to get memberships, and are just waiting for either us to open the field, or get things organized.
We have also talked to the National Guard, and they are talking about renting our field at least once a month. We have made an unoffical quote of $500 a weekend. For the math, that covers + our field fees. So were playing for free.
We have talked to the Police Department, they want the same deal. So that for the math is $1000.00 a month. leaving us $750.00 extra for supplies.
Pirate and I have already agreed to sign the lease. So we're the ones taking responsibility. Non moderators simply need to worry about dues. $50 a month. Things might look a little rough around the edges right now, but in the future we are looking towards having more people, which in turn, will cause the people who get in it now to have lower dues in the future. we tossing around several ideads involving "benefits" for the senior members.
As for building supplies, we have looked into it and are talking to people about sponsers and such. Including places like Gearhead Outfitters. And giving them emplyee discounts and stuff for the donations of supplies.
Im not going to lie. And this goes out to everyone. I feel like im the only one that truly wants this field. If this is the case. I need to know now so I can tell Terry that the lease is off. This is not a thread to get everyones panties in a wad, simply to let everyone know whats going on and find out who's in and who's not.
