2015 Hershey Master Thread!, Starting Early Options

[Dr Evil]

Since this is one event that I look forward to every year, and it keeps me from jumping off a bridge, I thought I would get some interest started early as Easter is on the 5th this year and will not be an issue for the swap. This coming year should be HUGE. Who is planning on going?

[wndsnd]

I organized the spaces last year. Zach in prior years. Issues are getting spaces together and how many cars they will allow you at the spaces. Which is only one for every two spaces. Everyone wants a car at their space but they do not allow that. So last year I allocated a car pass only if you paid for two spaces.

I ordered extra spaces in my name to get more passes and some stand up members picked up the cost with me for that.

Other than that, and PCA always seeming to short what we request, it is a piece of cake.

But now that I think of it, the biggest problem was that I don't stay at that hellhole because I get points for business travel throughout the year, so I was not there at the motel in the morning g to hand out the passes. People had to find me on site to get their pass as I was setting up.

Someone else can do it this year. Not sure I am going down.

Count me in for a space. So if we organize this together, we can each get a space for $40 (after that initial $80 space is paid for)? Also, it seems like I remember that you had to buy two spaces for them to allow one car. is that right? Or, is it as simple as 1 $40 space will let me park my car at my vendor spot?

yes, 2 spaces = 1 car.
and that's sort of best case scenario
