Re: Differences in Europe?

Mark,

The dojo was given space by my former instructor's/mentor's church. The original idea was to provide a service to the church and then to the broader community, but the church members have largely never been interested. Thus, it's been a service to the broader community.

Once in awhile the membership will want to do something that requires money. When that happens, we take up a voluntary donation. Other than that, there is no money involved.

It makes me nervous to operate with no cash flow and very little nest egg, but it's worked so far.

Regards,

Greg Jennings
