Before the implementation of the new Chapter structures, many (over 40) of our chapters had increased their dues significantly, which possibley covered meals at chapter meetings in many cases. The new chapter dues of $110 is lower for many chapters than previously charged. I am wondering how those chapters are modifying their meal policy going forward. Will you now be charging for meals at each chapter meeting, absorbing the costs, or have you come up with some other method for managing your meal costs? I'd love to hear from people from the following chapters who must be facing this issue currently: Atlanta, Phoenix, East Bay-Okland, Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco, Denver, Pikes Peak, Hartford, DC Metro, Greater Orlando, Chicago, Northern Illinois, Evansville, Indianapolis, Central Iowa, Crandic, Louisville, Baton Rouge, Boston, Grand Rapids, Metro Detroit, Minneapolis-St. Paul, Kansas City, Las Vegas, Albuquerque, Raleigh-Durham, Columbus, Dayton-Miami Valley, OK City, Nashville, Amarillo, Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston, San Antonio, Salt Lake City and Northern Virginia.
