I don’t even charge a penny for the use of the motors in the workshop.
I was not able to pay the helpers a penny including my wife who cleaned and mopped the toilet every day and Kevin McDonald for his time moving the motors, hoist, tools, engine stands, etc. to the venue and back home.
And thanks to the other members who could not attend and donated their fees to help cover the expenses. Please do the math, $550 per day room rental (2x), $400 miscellaneous expenses (supplies, special tools, tables, chairs, etc). Less than $500 left to pay for my time, and my helpers. The workers at McDonald across the street make more money per hour than me and you want a refund?
The only money I refunded were given to 2 members who were undergoing cancer treatments. Wished I could give more to help these people.

Tony-
Certainly we all acknowledge that this was not your fault, or mine for that matter. As you advised multiple times, you would provide a refund to those who could not attend the make up classes...but we had to wait for you to refill the new makeup dates. In the spirit of the COVID craziness, I have waited for that (almost 2 years). I ask now that you fulfill your end of things and provide a refund since I can not attend for health reasons. I attach here our correspondence detailing the above.
Regards, Lee
