walt rapp posted:I am no longer a TCA member but have read here that they opened up the meet to non-members. I looked at the Eastern Division web site for info and found the below form. I don't get it - the form has a line for a REQUIRED signature from a TCA member. I wouldn't exactly call that 'opening up to the public'.
I can probably get one but my question is: can I just go, go to the Silver Hall (assuming it's still there) to register and pay, and get in?
Would I get a badge to wear (just so I know to bring my holder or not)?
thanks - walt
Walt - that's the form to attend as a guest and it appears you are looking to attend as a member of the public. If so, just go to the ticket booth inside the Orange Hall. You can only attend on Friday and Saturday as a member of the public and can only access the Orange and Purple Halls (and Black Hall for the layouts). I don't believe members of the public get badges - just wrist bands.
If you are re-joining the TCA then yes, you can just go to the Silver Hall to register, pay and attend the meet. If you just want to attend as a one-time guest contact me offline via my profile email and I can meet you prior to the meet - either at breakfast or in front of the Orange Hall before the meet opens on Thursday. If you are a guest you get to wear a GUEST badge.
