Can you host functions such as silent auctions for charities? Again, things like this don't offend the members as the the club appears generous for donating the facility. The country club in my area went public three years ago because dues were't supporting it. One of the things they host is an art auction to benefit Big Brothers/Big Sisters. This year they invited area chefs to showcase their talents with appetizers provided for the guests and each place represented donated a dinner for six to be auctioned. It at least will boost bar sales. |
