Thanks Strainu, as this is the first time for us, I just wanted a rough figure to estimate for.
Kind regards Lourie

Hello everyone
I am from the South African chapter and we are also taking part in this year's WLM competition. We are curious as to what the budgets of the other participants are; are there maybe some other countries that would be so kind to share this with us? Thanks, we would just like to know for what we should be aiming for.
Hey Lourie,
You should only aim as high as you can manage it :) Decide on a reasonable budget for the prizes, then think what else you *can* do with the existing team. If there are 2-3 people involved in their spare time in organizing WLM, you'll probably need to give up on some of the ideas you see on this list.
Last year's budgets varied from $500 to over 10,000€, so it's really impossible to give you an exact figure.
