[Great Hall of Rockwall] Birthday Problems!

[Wulfric]

I wouldn't be concerned about too many people thinking the event is
free. Anyone that has been been in the SCA knows that there is usually a
charge of some type. Newbies are another story, but I really don't think
that we're going to be descended upon by by large numbers of them
either. Of course we could always take the pusher approach... "the first
one is free..." :)

To correct the maps on the NS site, someone would need to change the
address listing. The ad should also have had the rest of the information
such as price. I surprised that the EIO let it slip through since she is
suppose to verify every ad against the list of requirements that is
posted in the Northwatch. In the big picture, I would be less concerned
about the issues with the ad at this point and more concerned that no
one has seen or mentioned them before now.
