While I understand that there are various costs involved with JONAT, from
the participant's perspective those costs are not really apparent. So, the
local Jag club member who decides that he would like to support his Club and
other Jag enthusiasts by participating in JONAT events, which are on a "user
pay" basis, is required to pay $47 Cdn in exchange for a JONAT license plate
I tell you that this
will be a very tough sell. And speaking frankly, I can also tell you that
if I weren't an ASC, I certainly wouldn't participate. JONAT doesn't offer
anything except a license plaque and an opportunity to meet with other Jag
owners - I can get that through my local club. Why would I pay $47?? Am I
missing something here???
Oh, by the way, in our sector there is also the Van Dusen ABFM fee which is
levied against all entrants to the tune of $35. Charging this fee, is very
much like a theatre charging an entertainer to perform in front of the
audience from whom they have charged admission as well. Reportedly the ABFM
is Van Dusen Garden's busiest day. Without the British Cars at Van Dusen
Gardens would Van Dusen draw such a crowd? - and yet we, "the performers",
are charged an entry fee!! Something is wrong! It is like paying extra for
a trendy jacket that has a Nike logo on it so that you can have the
priviledge" of advertising for that company. Nike should cut the prices of
their jackets in exchange for you being a walking advertisement.
Thank you ....Rant over. And yes, I will pay the $47 and I'll probably
covet my JONAT license plate "thingy" in the years to come. But don't be
surprised if there is little local interest in JONAT

Subject: [JONAT] Driver's Fee plus late fee for express shipping
Hello,
I spoke with Bob earlier and discussed a different fee structure for
late-payers. Please let me know your thoughts.
All participants who pay on-time (within 15 days of their sector start)
would send payment to the Jonat Registrar in Regina ($36US or $47CAN). Their
numbered plate and registration pack would be included in the bulk shipment
that Regina sends out to their SC (12 days before their sector start).
A person who pays late (less than 15 days before their sector start) would
still register on the website, but would not send payment to Regina. Instead
they would pay their SC when they met up with the tour. At that time, the
SC would hand them a numbered plate and registration pack. A late fee of
$8US or $11CAN would apply (discussed further below). The SC would forward
these registration payments and late fees to Regina.
A person who spontaneously decides to join the tour as it is passing through
their area would pay the same registration cost and late fee as the late
payers, but would not necessarily register on the website, instead they
would fill out a blank registration form carried by the SC's. The SC would
forward these registration forms, payments, and late fees to Regina.
***************************************
Included in the regularly-scheduled bulk shipment to the SC would be the
following:
A. Registration packs that are pre-sold to paid participants joining in the
sector
B. Extra Registration packs to (possibly) sell during the sector
The cost of the late fee is calculated as follows:
If an SC runs out of Extra Registration packs during a sector, he would
request an express bulk shipment (comprising perhaps 10 complete
registration packs) from Regina that would be delivered overnight to an
upcoming hotel. Late-payers would have to wait a day or so to receive their
plate and registration pack. The cost of express shipping 10 registration
packs to the SC is estimated at $80 US, or $8 per registration pack.
Only in cases where the SC runs out of registration packs will Regina incur
the cost of express shipping. The rest of the time, the late fee is all
profit for Jonat. I mean the charity.
The $8 late fee would serve as a small incentive to encourage early
registrations, and not act as too big of a roadblock to late-comers or
spontaneous participants.
What do you all think?
http://jonat.org/user/welcome_plus_fee.cfm shows the simplified explanation
that drivers will see after they first register for the tour.
The registration form is done. You can see the new form by viewing your
profile on the website, 'My Profile' in the upper right hand section of the
main page. http://jonat.org/user/myprofile.cfm It shows the sectors with
checkboxes so you can select those that you will be participating in. These
data will feed a per-sector attendance list that the SC's will be able to
print out, thereby knowing who is scheduled to join their sector, and their
payment status.
