Do I have to stay at the hotel if I attend your event?
Why are hotel reservations not included in your cost?
Hotel room reservations are not included in the price of registration. We do this for two very important reasons. 1.) you can decide who you room with and how many people you'd like in your room and 2.) we don't require you to stay at the hotel. If you'd like to stay at home and commute to the event - no problem! We do offer a group rate for hotel reservations under the MVP Scrappers group name. You are responsible for making your own hotel reservations.
How is the lighting at the events?
Lighting at each event varies. We highly recommend you bring a small workstation light.
Do you have a Cricut?
Yes - I do! Please bring your own mats and cartridges if you have them. MVP will always have the basic George cartridge on hand.
Are all of your events held at hotels?
We hold at least one large event at a hotel and then smaller events either at hotels, rented vacation homes, and/or Bed and Breakfasts.
How is your seating done? Is it pre-assigned?
Our seating is preassigned. It is often a difficult task to insure that groups are seated together and special requests are met. As such, we ask that you not request a different spot once you arrive in the room. We work hard to make sure everyone has a great spot!
Do you play music during the event?
In the past we provided music for the whole group but it became difficult to find the right type of music and the right volume. We now suggest that you bring your own MP3 or IPod. We ask that you keep the volume low. We reserve the right to ask you to turn your music off if someone in the group finds it offensive or if it is too loud.
Will there be outlets?
Each event space does have outlets and I bring a large supply of power strips, extension cords, and duct tape. This way you can bring your own Cricut, light, etc. and we can usually get you plugged into a power source no problem.
How long is the crop room open?
The room is open as long as there is one brave scrapper scrapbooking away! Once the last scrapper is ready to hit the sack, either hotel security or Valerie is called to lock up the room. Then when the first scrapper is ready to go in the morning, they either call hotel security or Valerie to unlock the room. I have some events were the room never gets locked and other times where it is locked for a couple of hours in the wee wee early hours of the morning.
I don't scrapbook, but I do quilt. Can I still attend?
If you have a craft that you can do other than scrapbooking, you are certainly more than welcome to join us! Put in the registration note what type of craft you will be doing so that we can make sure to accommodate your needs. So if you are a digital scrapper, quilter, knitter, jewelry maker, etc.....come join us!
Can I bring my children?
For the safety of your children as well as the enjoyment of all scrappers, children are not to be in the event room with you unless they are 14 years or older (and a PAID scrapper) OR younger than six months. If your child is 14 or older, and would like to join us, they must register and pay as do all the scrappers. Your children are always more than welcome to visit you during the course of the weekend in the hotel common areas.
Do you play games at your event?
At our large and small events we have contests and challenges and hand out door prizes during the event. Sometimes, at our smaller events, we will play some games.
What is your refund policy?
Of your $150 registration fee, $50 is non-refundable. 100% of the remaining amount is refundable if the cancellation is made at least 30 days prior to the start of the event. I'm sorry - there are no refunds for cancellations made 29 days or less before the event date. Due to scheduling, I can no longer transfer event deposits to future events.
What if there is inclement weather?
In the event of a weather emergency where roads are impassible within a 60 mile radius of the event location (including the event location) due to a blizzard, flooding, tornado, or other severe weather related event, the event is canceled. In the case of a canceled event, event registration can either be returned to the scrapper minus the event deposit (which can be moved to a future event date) or the entire event registration can be moved to a future event date. Should an event be canceled due to a weather emergency- an update would be posted on the website, attendees would be contacted via e-mail and via phone.
