Equipment Purchases

[jim]

As the club slowly accumulates money, we should start planning on what we will do with the funds. Some obvious options:

- New Baskets

- Chain Upgrades at Bevier

- Tourney Entry Fee assistance

- Beer



The baskets at Bevier are OK, but will need work over the next 2 years. Shall we upgrade to better baskets or improve the same baskets with chain upgrades?  Any opinions?

I would say the majority of the baskets are in decent shape. I think we could save some money & go with chain upgrades.

I would also say we should go with the chain upgrades.  After playing at Parkside this weekend, I have seen how big a difference a basket with good chains can make.  However, I also think it would be wise to save for a quality temporary basket or two.  No offense to the homemade baskets, but if we're gonna be hosting tournaments I think we need the temporaries to be of a higher quality.
