Just Officials ...
No spouses/significant others here in my little corner of Connecticut. The banquet (classy banquet facility) costs our local board about $10,000.00 (open bar) and about 2/3 of our 325 members attend. The cost is built into our annual dues ($125.00), doesn't matter whether one plans to attend, or not, everybody pays.
