1.) I can
only attend one day, do I still have to pay the full registration fee or is
it discounted?
A.) The full registration fee covers all 3 days of the event whether
you attend one, two or all three days. The mini registration fee only
covers Friday OR Saturday. The registration fees cover many
different things such as insurance for the whole event, permits, park fees
and other tangible items needed to run the event overall. Once paid, all
registration fee's are considered as a donation and will not be refunded.
2.) I registered but now I'm unable to attend. Can I get a refund?
A.) No. Once paid, all registration fee's are considered as a
donation and will not be refunded.
3.) Since I'm a vendor, do I still have to register as an
individual, too?
A.) No. The vendor fees will cover the rental of the facilities
used by vendors and your individual registration as well.
4.) I didn't register but I'd still like to come. Will I get a
goodie bag and be able to attend some of the activities listed?
A.) Unfortunately, if you do not register, you will not get a goodie
bag nor will you be able to attend some of the activities listed. Allowing
non registered people to attend the same activities that registered people
have paid for is not fair. ALL registered people MUST wear
their current name tags to enter into some of the activities.
5.) I paid by PayPal but I never received a confirmation of
registration other than my PayPal receipt. Should I contact someone to
confirm my registration?
A.) Yes, by all means if you have NOT received a confirmation email
within 15 business days of registering by PayPal, please email
WCGG@cox.net
6.) I paid by personal check but I never received a confirmation of
registration other than my cancelled check as receipt. Should I contact
someone to confirm my registration?
A.) Yes, by all means if you have NOT received a confirmation email
within 15 business days of registering, please email
WCGG@cox.net
7.) I prepaid for some advance purchase items, when will I receive
them?
A.) ALL pre-purchased items and registration items will be mailed to
you with your registration packet.
8.) I registered late (OR) I will be arriving after 12
noon Friday. Where do I go to pick up my goodie bag?
A.) Go to the Information Booth located in Solvang Park at the corner
of 1st Street and Mission Drive and see if any goodie bags are left. You
will have to show your name tag in order to get a goodie bag. Registering
late does not guarantee you will be able to receive a goodie bag.
9.) I'm a vendor. What times will I be able to vend?
A.) Please read our VENDOR INFORMATION page. It will have
all of the important information you need to know such as vending times,
etc.
10.) I want to vend out of my room. Can I?
A.) Unfortunately, no, you may not vend out of your room.
Since the sale of the Royal Scandinavian Inn, we have moved all vendors to
the Veteran's Memorial Hall so it will be one stop shopping for all.
11.) Will my dog be allowed to go everywhere (ie: businesses, etc.)?
A.) Not all businesses in and around Solvang will be allowing dogs
per their policies. Please respect them and ask first before entering. You
can also look to see if there is a sign posted in the business window
stating *Greyhounds Welcome* or *No dogs please*.
12.) Do I need to be present at the raffle drawings?
A.) No, you do not need to be present to win. However, if you
purchase raffle tickets, please make sure your name and how to contact you
is legible. A good suggestion is to place a return mailing label on each
raffle ticket your purchase.
13.) Will
there be a veterinarian at the gathering for emergencies?
A.) The
gathering committee always tries to have a veterinarian on call for
emergency reasons. On call veterinarian information will be included
in your registration packet.
14.)
Will there be someone to watch my hound while I attend some of the
activities such as the buffet dinner?
A.)
You can ask on the West Coast Greyhound Gathering List if someone is
interested in watching your hound during that time. There are a few
people on the list who offer those services. Please note that the
organizing committee and the West Coast Greyhound Gathering are not
responsible for any arrangements made for dog sitting between individual
parties.
