Costs
Anything like transport, accommodation, or gear hire costs are paid by members.
There is also a small event fee for organizer and club costs. Please collect 500yen/day from members. Send half of this to the club PayPal account for website costs. Event organizers do not need to contribute
The other half is kept by the organizer for the cost of maps,safety gear, organizing costs. There are rules about car sharing in the information section.
You can ask participants to help you plan. Also on large events everyone can do jobs (like BBQ camp).
