For the last year it has been running at a loss of almost $4000 per month and if this continues, the club will close. However it has $50 000 sitting in the bank.
The club is operating at about 60% of its capacity. The voluntary committee (comprising of working parents which oversee the club affairs and employ the staff) feels there needs to be a strong marketing campaign to boost numbers of children attending.
The club has leaflets in the local library and community centre and some schools. Three times a year it sends out very brief e-mail notices to local schools to insert in parent newsletters about the club’s holiday programmes.
It is based in a small, expanding town, population 13 000. The children attend the five local schools in the town. The whole economy of the area relies heavily on the oil industry as the town’s situated close to Aberdeen, the oil capital of Europe
