The Social Budget must be less than 25% and net income must be more than 5% ( those are what my girls know as the "magical numbers" we must hit, financially speaking). The cost of sending a MEMBER to formal and parties (including dinner, DJ, transportation & security but NOT including booze or favors) must be covered in a chapter's dues, however the cost for a member's date and the cost for any favors must be paid in addition to dues, via Pass Thru procedures - as these are optional items.
