I presume the Convention lost money.

  In fact, they announced at the banquet that the Convention broke even.

Hi David:
Even if the convention were to lose money, the NSS has a special
convention fund where they take the profits from other conventions to
make up the short fall. This is done so that conventions will cut
the budget tight to hold the registration costs down on conventions, but
not draw from general funds if they take a loss.
