H, it wasn't an attempt at an Accountants report, all paperwork is available for anyone to view and has been submitted to the Accountanth wrote:the candle flickersklubfest wrote:To answer your questions.h wrote:OK as if lower case can't suffice ffs
anyways a question..
I was wondering if where does all the money go?
I know when I go on dubs by the pub run or action day
local registered clubs collect the cash n proceeds go to the club for insurance n for charities etc
but where is k c regoed n where does profits etc goto
any light here would great in my dim mind
thanks yeah
The money goes back into the show next year, making it bigger and better.
Klubfest 09 cost $6933 to lay on, gate takings were $7116. Making a grand profit of $183.00
Would you lay out that much in the hope that it does not rain and be a washout
If you attended our last three shows you would have noticed the effort and time that the committee put in, to make Klubfest one of the best events in the country.
I hope this has enlightened you
many thanks for the reply.. of sorts yeah
basically it doesn't answer the two points i outlined (reread above) but i appreciate the effort
an attempt at an accountants report means sfa really
the questions were not of a personal nature as to reflect the response it entails it was of... not..
i am disappointed really at the personalising of this issue but most will rise above that here..
moving forward, as to where i pointed out in the example, now with extrapolation, that said clubs do take on such responsibilities where a figure and maybe any excess profit and interest is allocated to further events and to a nominated charity(s) for the event entailed.. this to me is unknown, as is the state registered status with elected reps voted annually etc - the basic questions not answered
these are not hard questions and therefore should not receive hard answers - simple really
in retrospect i am a little miffed as to the response received as to the denigrating nature of wanting to stifle a dedicated committee, camaraderie and all the family fun that will ensue from the event was throughly not my intention
moreover, i wish a great day out for all that attend and that many more events where like minded individuals can enjoy and share a common good may be achieved
thanks pauly 🙂
Klubfest has, for the past 2 years supported Guide Dogs for the Blind, for which they were very gratefull.
I am sorry if that is not good enough for you?
Klubfest was reserected 3 years ago, ater falling numbers and the lack of facilities, that is when we teamed up with KlubVW, to change the format of VW shows
The Gold Coast Show, quite simply, was not going ahead, I contacted the organisers first and foremost, so as not to tread on anyones toes. They were unable to team up with us
You will find that most large shows, Worldwide, are organised by Business, Private Individuals and Event Promoters. This has proved to be a success, encouraging re-investment. Therfore more attractions, better facilities, increased numbers ect ect. keeping the Volkswagen scene alive and thriving
I realised a long time ago, that you can't please everyone, all the time, nor will I attempt to. There will always be a critic, no matter what you do, or what effort one puts in. Most people will come to the show and enjoy a great family day out with fellow VW lovers
