Wasn't sure if I missed this info....... It may have been posted and I just missed it!

I'm planning on having name tags for everyone who's registered, so that we can quickly identify those who "belong" and those who are just trying to sneak in
. My main concern is that we don't have any "bad guys" sneaking in since all the details of our meet-up are public. The name tags will indicate that you've paid your registration and are "one of us"
. I'm going to have those name tags at the meet-up on Friday since most of us are attending that. The location for that meet-up is Loose Park, and people can either drive there, or the hotel shuttle will be taking each of us and our babies there as well. Each time another shuttle-full arrives, I'll pass out the name tags to the newcomers.
The TIME for the meet-up is still to be determined.
Then, for anybody who cannot attend the meet-up on Friday, I will have their name tag waiting for them during the continental breakfast on Saturday. Even those who aren't staying at the hotel still have to pay the registration fee, which covers breakfast, the meeting room for speakers, etc., so they will still be able to eat breakfast with everyone else. The only exception to this is if someone is a vendor only and will NOT be attending breakfast, speakers, or anything else, and they will have a different name tag, indicating that they are vendor only. This seemed like the easiest way for us to not have to "police" the food table to make sure there is enough food for those who did pay. I'm sure none of us want to be the "bad guy" asking people to drop the croissant because they didn't pay for it
, but we don't want there to NOT be enough food for those who did pay either. That's why the registration fee is a flat price, as opposed to having different prices for those who do or do not want breakfast.
