I've been involved with clubs for 30 years and have seen 2 treasures get axed. In both cases the funds were replaced and the parties expelled. Recently I've seen 2 incidents where people I know have been caught pilfering funds from high school clubs and small town chapters. In both cases the monetary amount was considerable. In both cases the people did not seem to show remorse. If it was me with my face in the paper I think I would crawl in a hole and hide.
The tough one is when club members take donations. We experienced a case where donations were reported to be given by the business, but could not be tracked back to the treasury. It came down to a case of she said/ he said that couldn't be proven either way and created rift in the club and community. Granted most donations are small compared to a club treasury, but a spade is a spade.
During an event or show there are thousands of dollars changing hands at stands, gates, and booths. And we all know that getting volunteers is tough let alone getting all trustworthy volunteers. Whatever the case may be just be aware of a trend or something that looks amiss.
