Come on folks! We need more pre-payers!

 

Can you come up to Collinsville so I can prepay?

 

Why not paypal?

 

Because up in them there parts yonder, they don't know what credit cards are, and PayPal is him dropping a twelve-pack off at his neighbors' place for helping paint the fence!!

 

I wish I could, where is Collinsville exactly?

 

I'm curious about the costs of running the meet, like, what is the actual "target" number for funds to raise to get the permit itself? Or is it sliding scale? And if it is sliding scale, what is it cost per car, or per person? I'm actually confused about why it costs money for a permit at a park if we also have to pay at the door for parking. Shouldn't that in itself pay for a "permit" of sorts?

This is a legitimate question spawned by curiosity.

 

and also beaten into the ground from all the previous threads on this subject...

 

Just curious, it's not like anyone has posted anything solid about the actual costs, and if they have, they're either hidden or in the dumpster. What's wrong with letting the community that you serve know where their hard earned money is going?

 

Oh, no problem man! No one asked until you did.


1. 200lbs of chicken
2. 100lbs of tri tip steak
3. $1200 entree fee
4. snacks for x amount of people
5. desert for 400-500 people
6. 2000 drinks of all sorts (too keep everyone hydrated)
7. Supplies

It all ads up to like 4-5k!

There's more then that, I just can't think of it at the moment.
All left over money goes to an animal charity!

Dude, Josipa is looking forward to seeing you Charlie!!!

I mean, what will $5 get you nowadays anyway?

 

Oh, and I agree with you, I wish the parking fee went towards the event, but it goes to the park and I have no dealing with them what so ever. I wish there wasn't a parking fee at all, but all the cool places have it.


Charlie, you looking forward to the new Rammstein album?

 

Ive been slacking on prepay srry

 

Cool, thanks for the break down. I don't know if I'll make it yet, it's still up in the air. As for the new Rammstein album, I really can't say I've been watching out for it, hahaha. I've been going back to Journey.

 

what's the headcount so far?

 

Wasn't sure if I was able to go but finally got the day off.
A buddy of mine just picked up a suby few weeks back and will be attending as well.
I will be sending in the paypal fees as soon as I get an accurate head count of how many other people are also going with us.
BTW is there a caravan sign up sheet/thread for SJ?
I'm totally down for a 30 suby caravan

 

are bikes allowed?
