Treasurer’s Report
The balance of the Wellington regional account on 1 September 2025 was $6,165.34. The balance on 1 September 2026 was $5,528.40, giving a decrease of $726.94. The reason for this decrease is that, as noted in the previous financial report, we were partway through the project cycle for Consequence 4, and had collected $4,400 of revenue for it, without paying the related expenses. Before that project started, our bank balance was $1,766.11.
NZLARPS Wellington supported two major projects this year (Consequence 4 & 5), both of which made large profits ($1502.67 and $1,134.35 respectively). We also supported four smaller projects (Carnival Arcane, Down Comes the Night, Be Not Afraid, and The Weave), which were also profitable. We also received $250.49 in donations from “The Roswell Incident” and “Hotel Paradise”.
The level of larp activity has returned to pre-pandemic levels, and this has helped rebuild our finances to the level where we can now comfortably support games. We owe a huge debt to all the GMs - and particularly the Consequence team - for this. Looking forward, it looks like we will have an even higher level of activity, with two weekend campaigns and a host of smaller games. Not all of this will be done through NZLARPS, but we look forward to supporting it however we can.
A report in the same format as last year, showing transactions and a summary of the types of revenue and expenditure is attached.
