This is probabally a dumb question,, so I'll go ahead and post it here,,,would it be okay to add my share of the 158.00 each month until I pay the balance,,or just in one lump payment. Thanks--george

Small payments are fine, but remember every payment takes like 3% + $0.35
so if you make 100 $1 paymenys, they will keep $40 or so.

I'm ready to pay all at once.
Do it.
Ferrariiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
how does it happen ?

So, the Paypal account looks a little bare. Anything going on here?
Ready to start paying.

I could have missed it, but I thought it was a combination of both.

me too, IIRC the guys who cooked last year,,whose names escape me James? and Ray?,told me that it would be different this year,,maybe one (supper) as a group, but that we would be on our on for the rest,,which is ok with me,as these guys did spend alot of time in the kitchen last year.Another thought,,I probabally cannot stay the 10 days,, can you pro-rate the food bill?.In the end,I'm a team player,so I'll do whatever is best for the group.

Your the man George.

I guess this is where I took it from....

Hello fellas [ladies as well]. I'm sorry I haven't been around as much lately to address things like this. Yes, there will be some changes this year concerning CF. With the overwhelming time it took to do breakfast last year we have decided that everybody needs to do their own breakfast. We do apologize, but for the cooks last year breakfast pretty much ran into lunch. I have to admit, it sucks being on vacation and being stuck in the kitchen from 7 or 8 in the morning until around 1 or 2 in the afternoon. Prep, cooking, cleanup and other kitchen duties takes longer than you think for close to 50 people.

NOT gonna happen this year.

So now that we know that breakfast is a bring your own type deal, I'll move on. Lunches and dinners will be provided this year, just as it was last year with one big change. There will not be a designated "mess hall". This year we are not going to rearrange the two main host cabins to accommodate a meal cabin. What we will be doing is having volunteers that come sign up for a lunch or a dinner actually cook and serve in their own cabin. The meals will be paid for via the CF fund so the hosts do not have to incur the costs of feeding such a large crowd.

In talking with James, the bulk of the dinners have already been planned. Some will be at the old mess hall, some will be at my cabin and others will be at cabins we don't even know about yet. We are still in the planning phase. Most of the lunches as far as I know we still need volunteers for. More on that to come later. Basically, we are not going to have just one cook for the entire event.

George, to answer your question. Yes, you can prorate the CF fund. Everybody can. Whatever days you are renting a cabin or planning on attending are the days that you need to prorate the amount of funds for. Now, just for your knowledge. These funds are not only going toward the food, but they are going toward ice, toilet paper, paper towels, plastic dinnerware and cups, door prizes and other necessary items that spring up from time to time not only during the planning phase, but as we are all attending as well.

Gotcha',, thanks for the clarification.

Excellent!
Will get paid within a week (hopefully) and will start my contributions then.
