*snif* I just got an email from our new pool treasurer that said "I'd like to put together a budget." *snif*
That's just beautiful. Previous treasurer/president had the books for 15 years. We never had a budget.

"These numbers aren't right, but they are the best numbers we have"
Punch line: "Um... If these numbers are wrong anyway, why don't we make up better wrong numbers to use?"

Be sure to leave a large, unspecified slush fund in the budget :)
