have used some of it to purchase a tent for our use at various events and we
still have money. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

color=#0000ff size=2>Seriously, the money we get from running events and
donations goes to support our recreation of the middle ages. We must keep a
reserve sufficient to allow us to keep going if we have two events in a row do
very badly. For example, if one got rained out and the next one had the site
burn down. We need to be able to pay enough to finance the next event.

<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=359134422-30052007><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>However, once we have met that criteria, then we should be
using our funds to buy things that help us recreate. Like tents, regalia,
furniture, etc. We cannot buy things that would benefit only a few or would
benefit primarily those who decide how to spend the money. But if you have an
ideas on things we could do or buy that would make Elfsea a better place, feel
free to contact me or any member of the finance committee. It helps if you put
it in writing or an email. But please don't be upset with us if your idea does
not pass the guidelines that the Kingdom and Society have published to ensure we
meet the IRS guidelines. We don't have any choice but to follow those even if
they don't appear to make a lot of sense to you or me. If that happens, we will
work with you to change the idea so it will pass their net, if you
like.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
