It's been a number of years since our group hosted IOLI so I may not be 
remembering correctly.  However, I think we had a very small charge, like 
$3.00, for public visitors who wanted to shop.  People had to have a nametag to 
enter the vendor's hall.  The charge covered the nametag.  If they took a class 
or two that day, then there was a one-day registration fee.  The exhibit hall 
was open to any visitor.  That I know because I was in charge of it, and we did 
not check for nametags when people came in.

If the conference guidelines do not specify rules, then the hosts can probably 
do it however they wish.  There's usually a very small number of public 
visitors that day so it isn't a major problem.

Alice in Oregon -- where we had one day of sunny, but chilly, spring - then 
back to rain for the next week.

I stand corrected. I was mistaken about having to pay the mini-registration to
attend the public day. I have checked with the highest authorities in the
convention and I am told that the public day, Wednesday, July 19th, is free to
attend. One may go to the exhibits, the sales room, the lecture (7-8) and the
Tat-Off (speed tatting competition) 8-9:30. One need only pay the
mini-registration if one is registering to take the Introduction to Bobbin
Lace class being taught by Kim Czerwinski, which will occur from 8:30 am until
4:30 with a break for lunch and costs $88, all materials provided.

That has always been my understanding as well.  Thank you Anita, for pointing 
that out.
