In answer to Mistress Stella's question on question 1. Sometimes if a site is close to where you live you will be more likely to just day trip instead of going out and camping or staying in a hotel. So I was asking what the distance/travel time cutoff is for whether you will just day trip or make accommodations to spend the night.

Greetings from Mistress Stella-
Here are my thoughts on the event questions:
1. How far are you willing to travel to daytrip? (hours, mileage) I'm unsure what information is being asked here. I usually refer to daytripping as going to an event that day and not camping or staying over for more than one day. Whether I day trip or not depends on many factors: weather (If it is supposed to rain, be high winds or thunderstorm I'll think twice about camping out.), type of event (A&S events such as Laurel's Prize that are usually only one day don't generally have the option of camping.), distance within 90 miles give or take.
2. What is the deciding factor as to whether you camp or stay at a hotel? Weather, type of event, finances.
3. Do you find it more expensive to camp or stay in a hotel? Stay in hotel costs more.
4. If you got a break on the site fee, would you be more willing to show up early and stay late for set up and tear down? No. I don't think this is a good idea. Too many people would take advantage of the price break and then not work when it was time.
5. If you day trip, what time do you generally arrive at the event and what time do you leave? When events start. I usually try to stay to help with clean up, as people get tired and don't stay to help clean up as often as would be nice.
6. What kinds of things would make you more likely to stay later, lets say Saturday of the event? (bardic, parties, special nighttime fighting) If I'm camping I'll stay until clean-up is done Sunday. If I'm daytripping, I like to leave after court, as I don't like to be on the road late at night.
7. Do you have the ability to have one or two people carpool with you to an event? (space in vehicle, for them and their stuff) Sometimes. It depends on the people. Some people cart around more stuff than others.
8. What kinds of things do you like in a site? Please rank the following (1 thru 8 with 1 being most important)
__4___ Flush toilets
___5__ Showers
____2_ Easy access to water
___3__ Easy access to electricity
___6__ Indoor (A/C or heated) hall of some kind
___7__ Formal parking (Blacktop/cement)
__8___ Close distance to hotels/food
__1___ Shade trees
In service, HE Stella
