Default [IBC] club funds

i would just like to thank everyone who has given up
suggestions for club
funds. I look to order the BCI pamphlet and think it'll be a

great asset.
Btw, anyone ever thought of doing brat frys, or making t-shirts

and selling
them?


Not a lot of money in bonsai shirts. We at the IBC have done it
5 times over the years, and while we weren't TRYING to make
money, we were lucky (in some cases) to break even. And we were
selling to ourselves all 1,000 or so of us. Unless your club is
gigantic, you have a smaller market (because I can't see a
popular groundswell for shirts with potted trees on them).

I'm probably dating myself but I have NO idea what a "brat fry"
is (though if you have one of those I have several brats in mind
to send you).
