An Update from the Kingdom of Akron Assembly of Lords

Hey mates,
Wanted to give you all a heads up. The Kingdom Assembly just voted to start a dues system (like most of the chapters [and for that matter units] have).
The fee is only $5.00 a month, less than a Starbucks.

In the past the three house lords have pretty much funded all group expenditures out of pocket. But with the growth we have already had and the further growth we are expecting the three of us simply can't afford to do it.

The funds will be used for things like - promoting growth, maintaining and purchasing Kingdom-owned supplies (STURDY pavilions, group weapons, etc.), and fronting the initial costs to host events. Dues will be maintained by the treasurer and collected by the House Lords starting in August.

I know that nobody likes things like dues, but the pervasive thought is the same: We need funding to continue to grow. We have secured one of the largest and best spots in all of Coopers Lake for the next 3+ Ragnarok years. We could easily fit 50-60 Kingdom members in our camp without even squeezing. Growth has started to pick up. And it looks like at least one Unit is beginning to take off. In short, we are looking at something very exciting.

If anybody has any questions or concerns, please email me.
