They don't know if there will be any for 2019 as they might be able to open January 2019 if construction that they already started goes as planned. If they can open for 2019 I'll gladly pay.

As I just posted in another thread, I'm unwilling to pay 2018 fees if they cannot be used. "It is good to do nothing all day, and then to rest"
