It's extremely expensive, $32/wk/person is too much. Also the leader being free part would just be subtracted from the cost of paying as a group. So rather than everyone paying 36, everyone would pay 32 or w/e and the leader would pay too. But yeah, too expensive to make it work either way.

Yeah every week would be ridiculous! Maybe every month/2months?
Still expensive...
Didn't someone say the groups get money from the school?

There's a multiquote button.

I'd go if it was free/paid for.

While it sounds great and I love to paintball, I really have a hard time seeing the school approve the club's charter. I think there would be too much of a liability issue.

Didn't someone say that the clubs get like $500? Also playing paint ball every time we meet would be ridiculous! As that guy said earlier, we would probably spend most of our sessions practicing strategies or something

With $500 you'd get 2 meetings assuming that members covered the additional $200ish for the second session. Also, I doubt you'd get funds, budget's tight.

If you are passionate about this and you want it going, I would suggest you ask SGO for money. The money that they get is used for student activities ... being this is a student activity...and a club (or soon to be club) you should petition for it.
