Rub and Registration!

Preregister and Get $10 Off!

If you preregister by September 30, 2011, you pay only $50 per Redshirts and $70 per PBC. Just use our handy new Paypal portal to signup or send in your rub by snail mail postmarked no later than September 30th. We don't care if you're Sid, an XNGH or Joe's dog peed on your flyer -- no exceptions. It's $10 more at the gate.

ECV Brothers who are on Active Military Duty who preregister by September 30th get in free. Just mention it in your registration and make sure to bring proof, like a copy of an official email showing your current orders, along with your military ID.

Pre-registration is important to us because it avoids wasting food, but if your jackass gets sick just let our GDR know before the start of the weekend, and he'll make sure you're comped for next time. So don't delay. Use Paypal, or download the forms and mail them, along with your rub to: Peter Lebeck -- E Clampus Vitus, Box 384, Bakersfield, CA 93302.

All Chapter Hawkers are welcome to ply their goods. But be prepared to do some trading.

PBC Handout and Instructions!

Special PBC Requirements

ALL SPONSORS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE FOLLOWING:

PBCs must be delivered to the Hangman upon entering the Clampsite. No exceptions. ALL PBCs must have a bribe and an historical presentation for our Board of Inquiry. Any infirmities that might affect your PBC's ability to do moderately physical tasks MUST be disclosed with your registration. Vertigo, bad knees, bad ticker, claustrophobia, all that stuff counts. Our initiation is not an endurance test! PBCs with physical limitations will be accommodated, but a failure to disclose endangers the health of your PBC and is not appreciated by anyone. Also PBCs may not wear RED until after completing their sacred ordeal. Finally, membership is open only to men 21 or older with good attitudes. These rules provide for the safety and fair treatment of your friend. As his sponsor it is your responsibility to make sure that he complies.

ALL PBCs ARE ADVISED:

That from the time of their arrival all PBCs are guests of the Brothers of Peter Lebeck, ECV and will be under the protection and control of our Hangman & his Vigilantes. As is our custom at PXL, PBCs may fraternize with the Brethren on Friday but must show good attitude and submit to the directions of the Hangman from the time of their arrival, including being of service when so instructed by our Hangman. All PBCs in Clamp on Friday evening must report promptly to the Hangman at 8:00 p.m. for instruction. Last call for PBCs is 8:00 a.m. Saturday morning. All PBCs must report to the Hangman at that time on pain of foregoing initiation. PBCs must be knowledgeable of all educational materials provided to them, be prepared to stand and deliver before our Board of Inquiry, and be sober throughout the initiation. No Exceptions!

The PXL PBC Handbook should be downloaded Here!

PXL adheres to all Grand Council Rules which will be strictly enforced. It will be a clean, but memorable initiation as befits our Honorable Order.

Timbo's Do's and Don'ts!

These are the Rules--So Read 'em!

DO BRING: Water, shade, firewood, raffle/auction prizes, meats and comestibles for Saturday's Group Breakfast (but not eggs), good PBCs, ideas for PBC games, trash bags. Please bring personal hygiene items for the ladies and toys for the kids at the women's shelter in Bakersfield.

DON'T BRING: Dope, firearms, explosives (including females), eggs (we supply the eggs), weaponry, anyone under 21, pissy PBCs or any of the usual No-Nos. Violation means expulsion without refund. So, don't risk it. This applies to EVERYONE!

ALL PBCs must have a bribe for the board and an historical presentation, as well as the requisite amount of dust. All PBCs will submit to the authority of our Hangman, Russ "Hole" Chapman, upon entry to the Clampsite and remain under his protection and control. All brothers are expected to treat these candidates with respect, according to Grand Council Rules.
