Like ALL OTHER Meet-ups, a deposit needs to be required with your RSVP - as a good faith deposit. All meetups require this because this is VERY expensive, even when we do bare minimum. If people ARE coming, they will understand this and paypal or money order their good faith RSVP - the 20.00 deposit.

Im not going to be left broke with enough food toys and treats for 25 people... and no one show. I cant afford to even allow that to be an option.

ALL meetups require this as its the intelligent thing to do. Most meetup ask more than 20 dollars but we will not. The economy is BAD - I understand that. I too ask yall to understand that and see this through my eyes. Wearing my shoes!

I would be VERY UPSET to be left with all of that - plus unable to leave on the boat fearful someone MIGHT SHOW... just bad news without a deposit. Ive spoken to many that have hosted them and the whole deposit thing really CANT be an option. Rather a MUST! I try to learn from others mistakes and NOT requiring a deposit is a horrid mistake.
