May mean you can't do all you would "like" to do, but such is life.

Surely, there is a mistake here somewhere.
I promise you, there is no mistake. Just a failure to budget properly.

I would think that this will not really solve the problem because once you start charging (especially that much) the attendance will probably drop.

I hope we don't have the same team doing this years conference, if that is the case.

Need someone to guide who knows what budgets mean.

If I could afford to go to the conference I probably could afford the $25.00 fee.

HOWEVER, I may not feel obligated to give an offering.

I bet it would be fun sending in an independant, 3rd party auditing team to see if the UPC is "wise stewards" of their all their financial resources....
