Worldcon also has single day memberships. These range from $50-$75 (as of today). If you'd be interested in just one feature, for example the "Build Your Own Spaceship" activity, you'd only need a membership for the day of that activity.

The URL with the one day memberships is http://www.laconiv.org/2006/reg/oneday.htm

Hope this helps.
