The Homestead Museum in California has used a variety of different admission methods, from hand stamps to buttons to wrist straps, for their special events. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages. Contact Alexandra Rasic, the Public Programs Manager, at (626) 968-8492 for their latest experiences, as well as a list of vendors (I think they're favoring wrist straps).

I'm interested in hearing from colleagues who currently use admission buttons. Have listers had positive experiences with certain vendors? Is it necessary or preferable to use different colored buttons for different days?
