I'm in agreement with Denise and many of us that discussed this with the
DLV'02 and DLV'03 org grop. While, yes, many of us organizers do put out $'s
out of our own purse, and sometimes we don't break even, IMO, it is worth it
to see ya'll have such a great time.
While there will be some activities (notice I didn't say 'venues' Annie..LOL)
that do require payment and sometimes pre-payment, most activities are
pay-as-you-go.
One thing, speaking for the DLVorg group is that we wish to keep DLV as a
vacation, and not a 'convention'. I don't envision DLV ever asking for a
registration fee, even a nominal fee. There is this ongoing discussion that
if a sister puts down money for a registration fee, then they will show up.
I'll tell ya'll first hand, that I did this for Southern Comfort 2001 ($275)
and I didn't show up. So a monetary down payment does not insure a sister
showing up. FYI.
I do not condone a 'registration fee' for DLV, beit $275 or $1. Just bring
Peeps :)
