Re: [Philmont]: wait list

Guys, I was told to sign up 2 adults and 5 kids for the total of the minimum
for a trek. I was told you could pay for the people above the 7 at
registration to avoid the loss of the deposits. So many things can happen
to a crew before you get to Philmont. The next time I will use this method
to avoid this money problem.

Merry Christmas to all on the list.
A special season's greeting & thanks to Dr. Bob for all of his help. I have
told him thanks a million times on the trail.
