[QUOTE=HP49er;216250]Just a note on the meals: they are not free. Itās an extra $75 for the season, which is an excellent deal.
The minimum for this access is about $1800 yearly, adding $300 or so per extra season ticket.
$1500 - 49er Club
$212 - $268 - Season ticket
$75 - Meal Pass[/QUOTE]
Yeah, I know there is the $75 addl. charge.
Glad to see others appear to agree that the 49er Club could/should āsomethingā to encourage greater giving.
Iāve already given more this year because of the baseball stadium. However, it will be a llllloooonnnnggggg time before I can afford $1575.00/yr. It a simple ROI formula. Iāve had the same food at other on-campus functions. Sure, the beer is nice caviot(sp?). But $1575.00 divided by 14 games at Halton Arena?..its cheaper to drink at a Panthers game.
Iām willing to give more money, but I do expect something for my investment. FWIW, I think they could double the cost for the parking pass/halftime hospitality and I doubt they would lose many (if any) participantsā¦even after a season like this.
I know the 49er Club is still fairly young, compared to other schoolsā¦but I just hate to see the school miss out on fundraising opps.
The 49er Club would see a lot more money from me, if it was set up something like this:
$49 - 1st year member (halftime & preferred parking)
$149 - halftime hospitality & preferred parking (after year 1)
$249 - same as $149, but add Media Guide
$349 - same as $249, but add home opener pregame meal
$449 - same as $349, but add ANY 2 additional pregame meals
$549 - same as $249, but add ANY 4 pregame meals
