Examples of possible uses for the increased bank balance include subsidizing our annual holiday luncheon, purchasing chapter SWAG, and paying speaker fees if charged by a keynote speaker. Food and beverages are typically provided at meetings by the host or chapter member companies, so unless otherwise notified by the officers for a specific meeting, the nominal fee will go directly into the chapter bank account.
