SC - NEED AN OPINION

[Elaine Koogler]

Whenever and wherever we have room, we always allow for "off board" as well as "on board", and those off board only pay the site fee, whatever that may be.  This is a custom in Atlantia that has been around since
long before I "joined up".  I can't imagine in being otherwise.  Occasionally, however, we just don't have enough room to allow for off board folks, so we have to limit that.  The other problem we've encountered is
trying to serve those who are on board when they are intermingled with those who have not paid for the feast.  So we do usually separate them from the folks who have paid.
