Pennsic War 36 (2007)

Registering for Pennsic War 36
The deadline for on-line registration is June 15, 2007 and mail-in registration is May 15, 2007.
Basically, the purpose of pre-reg is not to assure you'll get in to Pennsic; it
is to help your group get its necessary land allocation. Thus it is important
to keep these things in mind:
- Pre-registration is available on-line thru Coopers Lake webpage, and payable
via PayPal. Check here for links
- On the form under Group Camping With it is important that you
write, to the letter, exactly what your group has decided to be named.
Same spelling, same word order, etc.
- Send your registration (not postmarked, but received) by May 15th
- Don't include a Self-Addressed-Stamped Envelope. A confirmation letter will be sent to you.
- The adult pre-reg fee is $100.00. It can be paid by check or credit card. On-line registrations are via PayPal and can be paid by a major credit card via PayPal.
Pennsic XXXVI (2007) Fee Schedule
Here are a few helpful items to help you get through registration quicker
Have the following items in hand when entering check-in:
- Positive ID with photo and birth date E.g.: Photo drivers license, Military ID, Passport
- Registration confirmation

- Enough money for any additional gate fees (Fees listed below)
At-the-gate payment can be made using Cash, Visa, MasterCard or Money Order
(Alexander's Note: although there is an ATM on-site, it is not accessible
to you when you first check-in. Plan to have cash before you arrive
on-site!)
There is sometimes a long line (up to 3 hrs) for check-in on peak days; the
overflow is held in queue on the battlefield. You can avoid waiting in the long queues by arriving Monday through Thursday.

A Message from Information Point
Important information all Pennsic-goers should know! Submitted by Elaina of Oaklawn.
The ability to take personal messages for individuals at Pennsic is severely
limited. Please remind your family, friends, or employer that there is only
one incoming line for messages in the campground. In order to get a message
through to you, we will need the real, modern name of the person the message
is for, their SCA name, the Land registration-official name of the group you
are camping with, and the block they are camped in. BRIEF, EMERGENCY
MESSAGES ONLY will be relayed as quickly as possible to encampments. If you
are expecting a call for any other reason, please check Information point on
a daily basis to see if there is a message for you or anyone in your camp.
For details on the emergeny phone number and how to call, see the FAQ security page.
Abuse? What abuse?
Sadly, wherever there is bureaucracy on a large scale, there is abuse. With regards
to registration, many groups who attend Pennsic abuse the pre-registration system by
registering fictitious people (or people who have no intention of attending War) in
order to get extra land. Even though the refund policy has been changed recently in
an attempt to discourage the practice, I think the abuse will still be widespread.
The most common way has been to register a fictitious minor or infant at a fixed
cost of $5 or $20. They are allocated as much land (or used to be) as an adult
so the cost for a little extra acreage is nominal. Some people (according to messages
on the Rialto) think this practice is perfectly acceptable, and even factor in
the extra expense as part of their budget, not even bothering with the refunds.
Honesty, it seems, is defined by convenience.
