[committee] 40th Anniversary Dinner

Committee was unable to reach a decision on whether or not to go with
the Hilton in the Meeting today.
The core concern is that people are doubtful we will be able to get the
numbers and expect we will therefore make a very large loss (several
thousand dollars).
The South Perth Yacht Club does not (as far as we know) allow payments
to be made in installments, but the Hilton does. However the Hilton
seems to have harsher conditions if we are unable to get 80+ people to
attend.
The third option is a pizza run in the Acorn Cafe.
Because we need to agree to the Hilton's contract by the 4th of
February, there will be more discussion on this list, possibly involving
graphs, and then a vote of committee via this mailing list on Sunday. If
anyone doesn't vote it will count as an abstain (ie: "No we don't want
the Hilton").
[SAS] may send more information later.
I encourage everyone to read the previous emails to this list which give
some information on the options (to which no one responded).
Good luck,
[SZM]
