NJ Crop Weekends Queen of the Crop - it's good to be the Queen!

Be an NJ Crop Weekends Queen of the Crop!!!

Our next crop - the Winter 2012 Crop Weekend - is coming up from February 24-26, 2012!  If you register and pay IN FULL for your package by this Sunday, November 13, you will be a Queen of the Crop!

So what exactly does that mean, you ask?

The Queens of our Crop get to take advantage of some extra perks:

• PRIORITY SEATING - All queens are able to choose their seat.  We will do our best to keep the rest of your table open for your friends, but there are no guarentees. (Your best bet is to have your friends be Queens as well!!)  Queen seating is offered first come, first served.
• EARLY CROP ROOM ENTRY - All queens can enter the Crop Room at 8:00AM on Friday.  That's TWO bonus hours to unpack, settle in, and start cropping before anyone else arrives at 10:00!!!
• CLASS DISCOUNT - All queens receive a 10% discount on all classes at the weekend.
• PRIORITY FOR TABLE MASSAGE APPOINTMENTS - Our fabulous table massage therapists have very limited appointments.  As a queen, you are guaranteed to get an appointment if you'd like one.
• EXTRA DOOR PRIZE TICKETS - All queens end up with at least 10 more door prize tickets than everyone else.  More tickets means more chances to win!!
• DECORATED SEATS - Everyone will know you are a queen by the great decorations on your seat!!

To view all the packages available, please click here.  You can pay in full by credit card, or personal check (checks are preferred, made to Jen Peel).  Checks must be dated by Sunday, November 13 and arrive no later than November 15.  All other payments must be received by November 13.
