Yungerman,
I did not address his comments because they were so far from anything resembling facts that there was no point. It would have meant rewriting his whole comment.
As a matter of point, I have a lot of experience with not for profits. I am commenting from my experience with not for profits.
As far as costs, zdog mentions 500 an hour. It’s an assumption that like so many of his, has no basis in reality and is easily ascertainable.
You will find that it not not so much more than the cost of renting a van with a driver from a reputable service. These drivers have experience driving much more rowdy groups. (Think proms). It is actually responsible to use such an experienced professional driver. The slight incremental cost is worthwhile for safety.
But it is irrelevant. Zdad is just looking for a reason to use when he does not give.
