Rally Fees / Payment Method / Deadline
As many of you are aware there were many changes with Keystone, The Elkhart County 4H Fairgrounds, and the MOC since the Annual North American MOC Fall Rally 2012. They appeared overwhelming at first. This required us to make some changes in the amount of the fees for the rally, how they are collected, and we had to institute a payment deadline. Last years Rally was spectacular, despite all these changes.
These changes are in effect again this year.
They are outlined below:
- When the new contracts were signed in 2012 with the Fairgrounds to reserve our Rally dates & site prices for the next 4 years, the new Fairgrounds management required us to fall in line with the rest of the rallies held there as to how site payments are made. We are now REQUIRED to collect the site fees from our attendees, and to pay for them in one lump sum to the Fairgrounds prior to the start of the Rally.
- Because of the above requirement, there will be a PAYMENT DEADLINE this year of SEPTEMBER 1, 2014 - no exceptions.[list_to_fix]
- Any unused sites must be released back to the Fairgrounds two weeks prior to the start of our rally.
- There will be no refunds of the site fees from the MOC for any reason after we pay the Fairgrounds - it will be up to you to try and get a refund from the Elkhart County 4H Fairgrounds, just as in the past.
- Failure to pay your registration fees by the deadline will result in the cancellation of your registration.
- Based on the amount of each attendee's transaction, PayPal charges the MOC a fee. That fee will be added to the Rally Fee.
- PayPal is the only method of fee payment to the MOC. The Wagon Masters will NOT accept personal checks (or payments of any kind) at the Rally. PayPal is a SECURE method of sending/transferring money via the Internet, despite what some people think..
Rally/Site Fees:
- $60.00 - Rally Fee (includes up to 2 people per rig.) (includes PayPal fees) Members who have more than 2 people in their Montanas will need to increase their rally fee by $25.00 per person.
- $150.00 - Camp Site Fee (9/24 - 10/1)
- $210.00 - Total due to PayPal
Please pay as soon as possible via the PayPal ('Donate' button, link, words or whatever appears there at the top of any of the MOC Forum's pages in the center of the page.) ALL FEES ARE DUE BY SEPTEMBER 1, 2014
This is how MOST other large rallies are handled, regardless of where they are held.
The
Annual North American MOC Fall Rally remains one of, if not the most inexpensive Rallies going. The DEADLINE for this rally this year and in the future will always be around the 1st of September for very obvious reasons. There are 6 weeks prior to the deadline, so there should be no problems with getting your fees to the MOC on time.
Again, please use the '
'Donate' button, link, words or whatever appears there at the top of any of the MOC Forum's pages in the center of the page. While on the PayPal page to send your donation you will see a space for
'(Your Name), please review your donation' PayPal page, click on the
'+ Add special instructions to the seller' link and type in '2014 Rally Fee' in the text box so that we know what it is for. You will receive a payment confirmation and receipt via email.
The Rally Attendance list will be updated with 'PAID' in red next to each name as their fee is paid.
PLEASE DO NOT SEND EMAILS OR POST TO SEE IF YOUR PAYMENT HAS BEEN RECEIVED. IT COULD TAKE OVER A WEEK FOR YOUR PAYMENT TO CLEAR, REVIEWED BY ADMINISTRATORS AND TO BE POSTED.
EARLY ARRIVALS: if you plan on arriving at the fairgrounds early, you are responsible for making your own reservations and paying for them separately for the time spent at the fairgrounds
PRIOR to the start of the rally. Also, if you are
NOT on your assigned site when the rally starts, you will have to
MOVE. Check the site assignments later when posted after all payments and sites are assigned. Try to get on YOUR site if arriving early.
