NEQ budget change

I had to rework the Bobcat's budget.
I will hand out the price of the trip on Sunday.
Thank you for your patience.  The price below would be the highest total.
i am going to double check the costs.

We have 9 players traveling.  One player dropped out this week.
All players traveling with have to pay the same cost weather you stay with the team or not.
We have to do this to keep costs down for the team.  Team first policy.
$402.00  with 9 players.  

We can talk about another fundraiser.
 

Bobcat's budget.
Includes tournament fee, hotel, food, train transportation, coach room and per diem.
447.00 per player  that is with 9 players and 1 coach.
84.00 dollars is due February 7th at the latest. March 25th $318.00 is due


Lion's budget.

479.22 that includes tournament fee, hotel 3 to a room plus 2 coaches rooms, food, train transportation, per diem for players and coaches.
9 players 2 coaches.

8 player 2 coaches budget using just two rooms for players and 2 rooms for coaches.  tournament fee, train transportation, per diem for players and coaches.  cost is 422.23  cost went down because I put 4 players in a room.

$94 dollars is due on February 7th.  328.23 is due on March 28th.





16 Blast Margay change in price of trip for Saratoga Springs

I am in the process of changing this total.
i need to double check everything out.
Thank you for your patience.
I will have it up by Wednesday. It is always difficult to lost players this late in the process.

The cost is now $267.00 total.
The price went up because only 9 players are traveling on the trip (2 players can not attend).
If you paid $55 you owe $212.00

We are checking on taking away a room which would lower the cost.
Hold tight.

Thank you,
Diane
