 IDEAS FOR CUTTING COSTS
==============================

CUT YOUR COSTS ON TRAVEL: On the Travel Page, you will see ways to create or join car pools form different cities. You will also see a way to find rides with others who are renting cars to drive from airports to the Park. We will also look at rides from Salt Lake City that you connect with.

CUT YOUR COSTS ON FOOD: It is not required for you to purchase the food plans and eat with the group. You may wish to eat in the restaurant in the lounge of the resort (Be aware of the possibility of long lines), bring your own food, or go someplace else (The town is only 5 blocks either direction so everything is within walking distance). Remember, though, that time at the event is always limited and that mealtimes can be rather brief. The potential exists for thousands of people to arrive in town to support this event, so expect restaurants and hotels to fill very quickly.

CUT YOUR COSTS ON LODGING: If you are looking for a room to share or have a room to share, contact GW, and we will post your name on the roommate list on the Lodging Page. There are many camping facilities, but these facilities go fast. This is Yellowstone, one of the most popular places in the world.
