You are right Chris a higher membership fee would probably help Lugnet in
someway. And I would be more than happy to pay. The enjoyment i get from
LUGNET is definately worth it..

However some of our members are still teenagers and they might not be able
to afford the extra $$$ , and to lose them as members because of money would
be sad..

Another thing that just popped into my head was Fund-Raising Auctions for
LUGNET.
If we could get donations of LEGO sets or pieces we could either auction the
sets off or part them out and auction the parts off. All funds raised could
be donated to LUGNET to help with administration etc.
I would be happy to donate LEGO and/or help run the auctions etc.

What do you think??

So maybe it's time for us to ante up.  I wonder how many of the ~1500 • members
would stick around at $25 per year?
