I would like to explore alternative pricing. I am drafting a letter to the organizers expressing our concerns. I would like to offer pricing alternatives. There are a few points that are particularly troublesome.
1. US Sailing membership - At most regattas, US Sailing membership is not mandatory and can be applied towards a discount for those with membership. Here it works the other way around and introduces considerable expense.
2. 2 day pricing - It looks like the pricing schedule is for a 3 day event.
3. Youth pricing - I would like to see a discount for youth and HS sailors.
I'm going to send it off tomorrow morning. If you have any suggestions, I would like to hear them.

That kind of entry fee for a two day regatta will make it very difficult
for high school sailors to participate
