We held a discussion to find ways to raise funds for our administration costs in the general account. Many ideas were shared, but we realized that more conversations are needed to come up with a solid plan. It’s important that we explore all options, so we can choose the best way to move forward. Everyone's input is valuable, and together we can find a solution that works best for our club.
