The website to register for the San Marcos River Vault is up and running:
http://www.elitesportz.com/sm/sanmarcos.aspx
To register from the website:
Step 1) Under "Entry Fee" click "Add to Cart" and another window will open on your screen in PayPal - check and adjust the quantities if needed
Step 2) If you wish to purchase a t-shirt in advance, click on "Continue Shopping" on the PayPal screen - you will be redirected back to the River Vault website - choose a t-shirt size from the pull down menu, then click on "Add to Cart" - you'll be redirected back to PayPal
Step 3) Verify your quantities on PayPal for both the Entry Fee and T-Shirts, then click "Proceed to Checkout" - If you currently have a PayPal account, you'll be prompted to login, then pay with your credit card - if not, you can set up an account in minutes and then pay.
Step 4) On the River Vault website, first determine which division you choose to jump in, then click on the link under Step 2, and fill out the registration form. A confirmation email will be sent to you.
Divisions and Times: Instead of dividing up the groups by age, gender, and ability level, we decided to simplify things by offering 6 divisions sorted by opening heights. You register for whatever division is right at or slightly under your desired opening height. Males and females, old and young of similar ability will all jump together. The opening heights are 5'0, 7'0, 9'0, 11'0, 13'0, 15'0. Please maintain integrity when registering by not entering in a division well below your height potential. If you're a current 12'6 vaulter, you should not register in the 9'0 opening or below divisions.

Pit 1 - Sub-Expert - Opening 13'0
Pit 2 - Novice - Opening 7'0
1pm
Pit 1 - Expert - Opening 15'0

Directions to the park: From I35, take Exit 206 (Aquarena Springs Drive) and follow Aquarena west past Bobcat Stadium. Park in the big lot immediately on your left past the stadium. The park is a little further down Aquarena on the other side of Strahan Coliseum, but there is no parking close by.
Lodging: At this late date and given the nature of San Marcos being a tourist-town with our river and Outlet Malls, lodging will be difficult to find. Therefore, we make no recommendations except that you might have better luck finding hotel rooms in Austin (25 minutes north) or San Antonio (45 minutes south).
Items to Bring: Water Bottles (water will be provided), lawn chairs or blankets, umbrellas, sunscreen, insect repellant, swimsuits and towels, canoes, tubes, YOUR POLES
Rules: No alcoholic beverages. No pets. No unsupervised children. Please refrain from using profanity. Unsafe vaulters will be cautioned to make adjustments and subject to disqualification at the discretion of the meet organizers and officials.
All vaulters and parents/guardians of vaulters will be required to sign a waiver.
