To ensure the comfort of all attendees, an attendance cap will be in place for the 2018 event. Based on the the previous year's attendance, and the historical growth patterns of similar events in this area, the event is expected to sell out. Registration may not be available on-site.
Your membership may be changed or cancelled without penalty until October 1, 2018.
