That sounds like a good alternative. But charging a sector fee discourages people from doing more than one sector. I am starting to think we should eliminate a sector fee altogether.

The idea is to keep things simple as this is an all volunteer effort. The simplest thing if for JONAT central to collect it's fees, and the sectors to collect theirs, so one flat fee I think would be less manageable for us volunteers (much better, however, for the participants) if we had to dole out money based on requests from the Sectors. My own personal opinion is that the Sectors need to collect and manage their own finances.
I suppose if we collect $65 for the tour, rather than $45, and send the extra $20 to the participants' home sector, this might be workable. We need to keep it a fixed amount though to keep it simple. How does that sound as an alternative ...

Bob,
As I look at this some more, the question keeps popping up....What is the rationale for doing both central and sector fees? Wouldn't it be more manageable to have just one flat fee for participation in the tour, which would be the same for everyone, regardless of the number of sectors travelled? So what if people travelling multiple sectors get more bang for their buck? This would enable all of the money to all be funneled into one place (central committee) where it could be managed basically by one person. If SC's need funds for approved requests, the central committee would then simply disperse the reimbursements from this pot and always know exactly where things stand financially.

I've put some thought into this lately, and have come up with Tour fees collected centrally, and Sector fees collected by the Sector. The downside to this is people will be sending their money all over the place, the upside is it keeps it distributed, with no monies passing between central and/or the sectors. This might not be the best way though ... any other thoughts?
We will probably also need fairly quickly a couple of registration people, one for the US, and one for CANADA. Jamie/Fazal comments? I have started to put together some registration pages at http://jonat.org/bob/RegistrationForm/RegistrationPageTest.htm if you want to see how things are going on this ... note that when you submit your registration by e-mail it does not work yet.

And, how exactly are these fees (both general and sector) to be collected?
