Nobody's planning to swing by the Old Town cruise on Friday night this year? I know there wasn't a huge turnout last year but it was still fun.

All valid however this was never advertised as an open to the public event. Holding the event at an all inclusive resort is very different than it being at a place like a dealership such as last year. The resort "villas" we are renting are actually owned by persons. One of our organizers actually does own a villa in the resort. An open to the general public event would bring in far more people. Where would they park? How do you keep them out of areas they shouldn't be in as they aren't owners or guests? How do we easily account for who is actually a registered rally attendee or their guest? There is a huge list of things to consider by doing that.
Many activities, giveaways and functions for this event would then be open to whomever walked in.
I am sure some will choose to go to Old Town on Friday but, it isn't something we are officially planning.
