Why are Clubs So Expensive?

[fun4two2006]

for NYE here in central NC there is a web site (not a club) charging 85 bucks for a private party in a small pub with no dance floor and no dinner included. Go figure.

Thought I'd throw our 2 cents in here also.

It was stated before that we are seeing more and more clubs open for the money aspect of swinging and I whole heartedly agree with that. For us we started our club to give our friends a "safe" place to go, by safe I mean a place where the general public cannot see whats going on. As the years have gone by we have noticed that fewer and fewer people are as concerened with who knows that they are swingers, and are much more open about where they meet. We have cut back on our ball room parties and are setting up more meet n greets at local bars, these are open to everyone who cares to attend, all you need to do is e-mail us and we will send you the location. If we are having food we charge a small $5 per person cover but most times its free to all. (on a side note we have noticed that we get very few single males showing up).

When we do have a ball room party our prices have dropped from $45 per couple to $25, the main reason being that we have gotten rid of alot of our overhead.

In the future I think that you are going to see more bar meets and fewer and fewer off-premesis parties due to the expansion of web sites that encourge or even promote these types of events. While this is hurting our income we also like the way things are heading. I truley believe that the cost of big parties has kept alot of younger couples away, now with the openess and acceptance of our lifestyle these couples can come out and play.

Just so everyone knows we didn't start our club to make money, we did it as a hobby much like our involvement in swinging, its something that we enjoy doing. As hosts get to meet lots more peeps than we would if we wern't, and in our world you can never meet enough people or have too many friends.
