People have mentioned that since we have won first place at GATS, we now

be OK to use club funds to buy parking passes? For instance, if GATS gives us 5
passes, and we're going to have 8 people driving to the fairgrounds, the club
could buy 3 more passes. If we keep doing well at the shows, maybe we could
even get the GATS people to give us a few extra passes.
