Great event last night! What an amazing kickoff! Not to jump right into financial issues, but I covered the $375 service fee (which is very reasonable but still…) for the facility. Unfortunately, I cannot do this in the future. Frankly, I need to be making money, not spending it. I’ve added two paid tickets to the first dialogue. One is “pay what you want,” with a $10 suggested contribution for “Supporter". The other, “Benefactor” ticket is for $20. We will see how this goes. Let’s keep planning in earnest but, if we cannot fully cover the cost for the first dialogue plus some, we will need to radically changing plans for the dialogues. We will discuss today but just wanted to be clear and frank about the situation and need to find financial support for Study Group activities. — Greg Laudeman, Ed.D.
