REGISTRATION FOR 2017 VSG CLOSES THIS SATURDAY
- Registration is all online, so you don't need us to do it, unless you are already registered and want to add an event.
- If you want to add an event, email us at vrps@vrps.com and we will contact you to assist you. As much as we'd like to talk to you, we cannot be efficient by helping you over the phone.
- VSG does NOT retain your credit card information, so in order to run subsequent payments, we will need to re-collect your data.
- If you think you registered but did not receive an emailed registration confirmation, you may not be registered - check your email!
- April 15 is a Saturday, and NO, WE WILL NOT BE HERE. Which means you need to contact us before then. And not all on Friday, as the odds of us being able to assist you last minute are not in your favor.
