Wayne,
Thanks for putting those concerns to rest. I want to ensure that we remain considerate guests, and keep the fun-factor high for you so you'll keep hosting us!
Robbie,
I think the way to go on SWAG (shirts, hats, stickers, coffee mugs) is to offer a pre-order / pre-pay system, with a cutoff date a couple weeks in advance of AirVenture. Then the firm (paid) orders can go to the production shop in time for the stuff to be brought in to the BBQ. Throw in a few extras for non-prepaid people and it might work out fairly easily. Maybe even do a raffle for a few door prizes (could include the cost in the ticket price) - everyone loves to win stuff!
