I'm in, but when did they start charging $2.47 for processing fees ?

They've always charged it, we just used to pay it for you. (I swear, NOBODY reads the event registration info)

There's event registration information on the site?

There's a whole page of it on the registration site. It's the first thing you see when you go to register for any event. It begins with "Please Read!"... but people still don't.

I use to read it, I figured it was a standard boiler plate, and never bothered. Guess from now on I will give it a going over from now on. :)

Usually, if there's anything new/different/important, I try to put it in the introduction at the top. (as I did this time)

Aaaaanyway... we're now 16 hours into registration, there are 24 drivers registered and 2 guests. And we still need an event chairman.

If the next Chair is interested (since it's a Saturday) I can get award winning Cuban Hot Pressed Sandwiches actually made by Cubans from Mysarkytown Cafe.

A little TOO new blood to be acting as event chairman, but we appreciate the enthusiasm!

Our registration site is being flaky lately. I emailed them about it, they are aware of the problem, but haven't found the cause yet. It comes and goes. Just keep trying.
