[Ohio-talk] Saving Money!

[richard]

That is fine but when we do business with the hotel we get free meeting
space and things that we would not get if we did not. The meeting last night
was not a board meeting. Yes you can bring your lunch that is ok for this
meeting.  We cannot have a convention in the other meeting places and it is
important that we visit this hotel again. I am not offended by this message.
My name is Richard Payne and I approve this message.

Greetings Friends,

I hope that I don't offend anyone by what I'm about to say.  If so, I
apologize in advance.  

Last night on the call with the Board, someone brought up the subject of
lunch being $18.  Personally, I think that's too high either for just a wrap
or a sub.  Instead of paying $18, bring your own lunch.  Not only will you
save money when you bring your own lunch, you control the amount of salt,
sugar and other unwanted ingredients, as well as portion size.  Take your
leftovers from last night's dinner and make a salad or a sandwich.  The
price of lunch seems to be climbing every year, and you can do something
about it. 

Additionally, we can save money if the Board has its meeting at a library or
a church, as we did in the past.  That way, we don't feel obligated to the
hotel staff about lunch.  Funds are very hard to raise, and we must spend
our money wisely.

I don't mean to come across as lecturing, and you can spend your money any
way you want.  This is common sense, and I thought you wouldn't mind my
opinion.

All the Best,
Milena Zavoli
