BTW TV mentioned attendance dropping....for a $25 entrance fee? I bet a lot of folks an save that much on all the fattening pepsi or the movies rentals etc etc...$25 is nothing compared to the dollar amounts they ask for at our Campmeeting just to pay for it. I'd gladly pay a $25 dollar fee to attend the GC

And if you had a family and this was your only vacation?

$75-100 could be better budgeted.

And it is $25 to pre-register before August.

It is $35 or $15 per day at the door.

Then again, can we deny the great things done in some of the services? I think not. A re-evaluation is probably necessary but let's not throw out the baby with the bathwater.

$25 is the cover charge ... then the real fleecing begins.

Can you imagine people deciding NOT to put money in the offering for the GC because a certain resolution was passed or not passed? If people aren't giving enough to support these events the money has to come someplace

Fleecing is an incorrect term.

Let's face it. Folks do what folks want to do. I have never begrudged one offering I have ever given. And I have never given if I did not feel led to.
