Thank you to everyone who took time to post feedback on our BLOG. Your feedback is very much appreciated and will be included in our post-event review, where we assess what worked well and, more importantly, what we can do differently or better the next time.
To say the turnout for CLUB H.O.G. 25 far exceeded our expectations is putting it mildly. Throughout our planning, we used the attendance from the last major anniversary in 2003 as a baseline – and then planned for a considerable increase. The turnout significantly exceeded our estimates. This was the biggest national H.O.G. rally by far – literally blowing past the attendance at prior events. We’re absolutely thrilled that so many of you made the trip to Milwaukee and joined us at CLUB H.O.G. 25 for this free member event – which included a great lineup of entertainment and activities. At the same time, we understand our members’ frustration with the lines and the crowded conditions. We also understand your disappointment if we ran out of event pins before you got one. Please accept our sincere apologies.
A number of the blog comments also focused on admission checks and concession prices. Please know that we did our best to check membership cards at the gate. The event was open to H.O.G. members and one guest per member. There was a brief time when a gate did not check memberships due to a miscommunication. Regarding the cost of food and beverages, concession prices were consistent with pricing at similar entertainment and sports venues in the Milwaukee market. Prices at CLUB H.O.G. 25 at Miller Park were set by Miller Park in accordance with their regular vendor agreements.
Again, we truly appreciate all of the feedback we received from you, our members, and will use it to help us plan future events. All of us on the H.O.G. staff very much enjoyed hosting you in our hometown of Milwaukee and we hope to see you again soon.
Sincerely,
H.O.G. Staff
