Registration for the 2014 Meet is OPEN!!!
« on: May 22, 2014, 01:08:01 AM »
Let me know if you have any questions.

Here's the Eventbrite link:   https://cgoamn2014.eventbrite.com

Everything is at Cost with 3 exceptions.  The Tent Camper, Slip Rental & Ramp Usage have a bit of a mark up on them so that we can pay for the website.  No one profits from the event, the goal is always to break even when its all said & done.

Look at the examples, post questions here if you need help.  I've done my best to be fair to everyone as far as 'sharing the cost' goes.  Campers are only charged per tent, per night.  Day Trippers are also contributing (as they should), and we're not marking up the fees on Kids, or Spouses, and/or Guests. 

Costs are in line with last year, and that includes the fact that the campground now has a charge on kids 6-17.  (Last year 15 and under were free.)

I've literally had a day and a half to get this pulled together, so I apologize for any mistakes in advance.

Registration can handle up to 8 People (4 Adults & 4 Kids).  If you're a larger group, you may have to break it up into 2 purchases.  Sorry.

Here's the Announcement Letter that's soon to hit your Spam Folder (so look for it!)

If one chooses to donate, the donation is then subject to a fee. Is there a way to donate with 100% of the money passing through to the organization?

Not through Eventbrite...they have to absorb the CC costs, and make money...so no, and its a bummer too, b/c its so convenient for the meet.

Cash at the meet always works, and is appreciated. ;)

We're absorbing those charges in the fees for the rest of the tickets.

Oh, I called the campground and made a reservation for the last RV spot. The instructions said to do that directly so I called during lunch. I just heard Marni's voicemail about the slips. I'll do that in the next few minutes!

Just an FYI to answer a question or 2 that I've gotten.

You can absolutely pay 'Cash at the Door' when you arrive at the meet.  You will still need to register ("buy your tickets") through the EventBrite site.  When you check out, below the 'Order Now' green button, is 'Show other payment options'.

Then select 'Pay Offline' and complete your purchase.

I would encourage you to use that option, Gregg and I are discovering that we'll essentially have to 'front' Island Campground & Marina a portion of our bill out of our pockets, and then wait to be reimbursed by Eventbrite.

The cost is the same, regardless of your registration method, so if you're so inclined, Register Now, pay CASH when you arrive...it must be Cash, no checks, no CC's, no exceptions.

Next year, we're going back to EventBrite as the registration process, but payment via Check in advance, or Cash at Red Wing upon arrival.  Old school baby. 

I'm not happy with EventBrite 'holding' a reserve until 5 days after the event has completed.

We'll figure it out.
