description The conflicts between public and private consumption are as old as mankind itself and can be observed in the permanent fight between the private individual and the collective its belongs. Specially in the use of certain goods and services, that by its nature has solely private consumption, with characteristics of purely collective consumption lik education. The study was conducted n August 2006, between 315 domestic and foreigners visitors to Volcán Poas National Park, in order to identify the preferred option and the essential conditions to reopen according to desire, and the visitors interests, the auditorium facilities of the park. The results would suggest that the sociodemographic characteristics of the visitors do not seem to have much influence in their desire of using the service or his willingness to pay an additional amount for the services. The preferred time of duration for the conferences was around 15 minutes. The presence and the audience's use must be negotiated with the tour operators. The way of collection of payment preferred was Internet, followed by tour operator. The additional average amounts to be pay for the service was three dollars. The reopening must contemplate four things: clear objectives, transparent procedures, separating the rent for the premises from the one to cover maintenance, since the auditorium is a public good product of a donation's product, and a periodic supervision mechanism for service's being provided. The data collected indicates that base on the additional amount to be pay by the service and the potential volume of visitors is possible to concession the auditorium to a private supplier or for the park to supply the service by itself if they so desire.
