Well that's the root of it. By charging "member" versus "non-member" rates,
your income percentage rises above some mystical (variable?) IRS threshold.
It also depends upon which particular type of "not for profit" status your
club files under.
All I know is that a few years back our treasurer lost a lot of sleep and
hair due to having to deal with the good ol' IRS on this exact issue.
Another time they "served" us by seizing many thousands of our local dollars
due to a simple paperwork snafu. Simple as in a one-page sheet that was
accidentally left out of that year's return envelope.
By the People, For the People my backside!

Eric-
Are you sure about that? I haven't dealt with that issue for about ten
years now, but I seem to recall the case I had turning on member versus
non-member revenue. It was the source of revenue not the difference in what
you charge. The country club started allowing more and more outside play
and the non-member revenue sources quickly exceeded the member revenue.
Next thing you know the IRS came looking for a big share. Old case though
and foggy memory.
