Money Clarity
As many of you will have noted, we are undertaking a fundraising drive to pave the onroad track at North Seatac park.
At the same time, we are heading into our biggest and most expensive indoor racing season ever. Our rents at Hangar 30 and the Community Center are going up. Nevertheless, we will NOT be raising our entry fees this year. We will be holding steady at $15 per entry and $25 family.
I will not compromise on any part of Accessible, Affordable, and Fun.
The club is funded by entry fees, raffles, and the occasional cash donation. The funds we have were given with the understanding that they would support our existing race programs. And so they will. All funds in hand from our existing racing will go toward supporting that racing.
Likewise, funds raised for the onroad track at SeaTac will go toward that track.
The funds will be accounted for separately, overseen by our treasurer, reported to the Comp Committee, and reported to the club at large in our open meetings. The funds will not be mixed.
As they have always been, our finances are open and accountable to the club's leadership and to the racers who support us.
