Budget:
For the budget plan, please use the EUF template.
We want to make clear that people who work hard on these events should receive some reasonable payment. Nevertheless, management costs should be kept to the minimum.
The EUF committee wants to ensure that all costs are clearly visible, that costs are reasonable, and that we help ensure that players don’t pay for things they might prefer not to have if given a choice.
