Re: [Harp-L] Re: young players and SPAH

While webcasts of the seminars would be great, part of my drive to go is for
networking, and to get to know and get to be known by other players, which
is the type of connection that needs to happen in person. Hotel+travel is a
lot in itself.... a discount on the registration price would help more than
anything else. Benefits are great, but ultimately its a matter of money for
right now.
