[Ravensfort] 1st Event Cards--A Few Questions

[Paul Gilbert]

Hi......

A couple points of information.... if we keep the GIFT tickets (Get In Free
Tickets), since there is not site fee charge associated with them, we do
not collect a NMS fee. The main concern on this is balancing the books
correctly and the asscoicated nightmare of logistics of rosters, etc.

Also, we can not place the waiver on the back of the card. We have to use
the roster form that the kingdom/SCA has approved which is the one that has
been used for some time. There is specific wording that is the only one
that is approved. Way too much text for the back of a small card and it
would have to be approved by the BoD to do it.

This has been talked about for some time concerning the fighter cards and
has not gotten resolved yet.

Those @#%^^ Calif lawyers getting in the way again of common sense.
