Accommodations: If you are staying for any Sunday event, there are no accommodations and no tenting at the club. The area has lots of motels (for a price). May we suggest you call one of your fellow Wayfarers in the area (Hans Gottschling, if no one else springs to mind!). You will find a good (free) place to rest your weary bones after a fine day in your Wayfarer.
.....

Registration: On Saturday morning. No entry fee.
