we have some great plans for the toys tour ... how about a VIP section . I always try to make this event appeal to as many as I can with the very low optional registration fee that provides for the shirts the bands psrties beverages and much more . I think I may not be appealing to some who want more , thus a VIP option ... let me know ,, phone me please

I don't attend (would love to one day) but can tell you I go to at least one charity event a week and am always turned off by ones that have VIP options. Treat everyone the same and make the difference up in silent auction items or extras that can be purchased on the spot but don't make me feel like a second class citizen.

MM I agree with you 100% but it seems that if you dont charge a lot people don`t think it`s worth it. My heart is with you on the same thought but those big high priced power boat events often fill all their slots look a desert storm and emeral coast but I do agree with you.
