Oh we tried, but some body (not gonna name names) wasn't very friendly to the fact that we came without pre-registering.... and, we brought food, so what incentive did we have to pay 90 more dollars to get a t-shirt???
I will assume you are referring to me since I was the one running registration during the entire event say thats completely untrue. I remember you all coming up to registration and talking with you. There was no unfriendliness toward you regarding the fact that you showed up unregistered. We knew of a number of people that were coming to the event for just a day that had not registered and were just fine with it. My hesitation was we were not expecting any multi-day non-registered people and I was quickly trying to figure out how to most cost effectively (to you) charge you since you were going to be there until Sunday (by park policies was 3 days wheeling and 2 nights camping, plus guest fees) and still get all the benefits of a registered participant.
You couldn't tell me if you were a member of the club so I couldn't give you the member rate and had to give you the non-member rate that we charged every other non-member but explained that you (and your guests) ALL would have gotten their own shirts and ALL of you would still get in on all 3 the provided meals.. to which you tossed out that you brought your own food, I guess to get the price lowered, which we couldn't do. At which point is when you said you would just go pay the park prices.
I'm sorry if you perceived my hesitations trying to figure out how to get you the most amount of bang for your buck under our registration as unfriendliness, it certainly was not my intentions.
