Here are some tips if you did not pre-register and are planning on coming to TMSP and registering on-site:
Check this Weblog and TMSPA website – We will try to post an update here on Thursday with any updates on vehicle size limits and attendee capacity. Large RV spots are limited, and we will close registration when we reach our capacity of 700 persons.
Arrive Early – Wednesday and Thursday are our largest projected arrival days for attendees. 80% of the pre-registered attendees plan on being on-site by Thursday.
Registration Hours – The Registration Tent opens and 9AM and closes at 8PM.
Come Prepared – Download, print and fill out the On-Site Registration Form from the TMSPA website and bring it with you. Remember that we will only accept cash and check payments for on-site registrations.
Be Patient – If you arrive on Wednesday or Thursday, expect there to be a line at the Registration Tent. Have your registration form and payment ready. Pull over as far as possible to the right side of the road as you approach the Registration Tent and follow the directions of the parking staff.
We expect Thursday afternoon and evening to be the busiest time for on-site registration.
We hope to see you on the mountain!

The permit issued by the US Forest Service gives TMSPA official use of the site beginning on Wednesday, August 11th.
If you are on-site prior to August 11th, you will need to follow US Forest Service regulations for the use of wilderness areas. Please check the US Forest Service website for more information regarding use of wilderness areas.

A preliminary schedule of events for TMSP 2010 has been posted on the General Information page of the TMSPA website. All times and dates are approximate and subject to change. The final events schedule will be posted and included in your newsletter that comes with the registration packet you receive when you check in at the Registration Tent.
Please note that due to limitations imposed by the US Forest Service, portable toilets are not scheduled to be delivered to the site until Wednesday, August 11th. If you arrive early, be prepared to trek to the Forest Service pit toilet on the Lion Rock road when “nature calls”.

TMSPA is pleased to announce that starting this year, you will be able to pay your registration fee online. We have partnered with PayPal to accept online payments using your credit or debit card. A PayPal account is not required to make use of this service, though you may also use your PayPal account if you have one.
Making your payment online eliminates the hassle of printing the form and mailing your payment.
There will be a $5.00 fee added to your registration if you pay online through PayPal. This fee is in place solely to cover our cost of processing the transaction through PayPal.
Online payments will only be available to those that register through TMSPA’s Online Registration System and choose the PayPal payment option. We cannot accept payments via PayPal for other registration methods at this time.

No, it’s not an April Fool’s joke – registration for the 2010 Table Mountain Star Party will open on April 1, 2010.
If you’ve been checking the Table Mountain Star Party website, you might have noticed that registration was going to open around that time, but now we’re making it official. The Online Registration system will be going live at that time. Or, if you prefer, the old printable registration form will be posted at that time also for you to download. Either way, mark your calendar for April 1st.
We’re looking forward to seeing you on the mountain again this year!

TMSPA would like to wish all of you a Happy and Prosperous New Year!
We would also like to remind you that the dates for the 2010 Table Mountain Star Party will be August 12th through August 14th. Please mark your calendars for those dates if you are planning on joining us on the mountain this year.
Registration for TMSP 2010 should open in early to mid-May and we will make an announcement here on the Weblog once the date for the opening of registration is set, as well as posting that info on the TMSPA website.

As of the time of above, we still have space available for On-Site Registrations.
As we celebrate to the 40th anniversary of the Apollo 11 landing, some of you who were around then might remember that phrase being transmitted from the Apollo spacecraft as they transited the far side of the Moon and lost radio communication. “LOS” was one of the plethora of acronyms used, and meant “Loss of Signal”.
We are going to experience our own LOS. The majority of TMSPA Directors are now either on the mountain or in-transit. Emails sent to tmspa.com addresses will not be received until after the event.
We will have limited connectivity on the mountain starting on Thursday, thanks to NomadISP and their WiFi Internet service, but we will not be actively monitoring or responding to emails. We will post critical announcements to this Weblog and website as necessary. If you are planning on coming and registering on-site, check here and the TMSPA website for those updates.
