Howdy all.
Well, it's come up again on our local KC mailing list. The subject of
"member" Solo fees versus "guest" fees.
The KCRSCCA recently (within the last 2 years) raised all Solo event entry
fees to the same $20 regardless of whether you're a SCCA member or a guest.
Some lame-ass tax reason was the excuse. Something about running a business
if we charge guests more and then owing income tax or not being able to
retain our non-for-profit status.
Anyway, has any other region out there that gives a slight fee break to
their members ever had any problems with the tax man because of it? I want
some ammo when I go before our local board and tell 'em they're full-o-crap
on the tax issue.
And if anyone has had issues with the tax man over entry fees, what were
they and how were they resolved?
Thanks in advance folks.
