Registration February 22, 2008

At this time we have not received all of our anticipated funding for the conference.  That being said, we are going to have to charge each family a $250 non refundable registration fee, paid during your registration process for the conference.  This registration fee will include:

    1.  2 nights lodging at Wintergreen Resort and Spa
    2.  All meals (six total)
    3.  All children’s activities
    4.  All educational activities

This really is a great deal for everyone who attends, as the price for one nights lodging alone is approximately $130.00.  The registration fee is charged per room, not per family, so if you are planning on coming alone and want to pair up with someone, you will only be charged one registration fee.  This also means, for example;  if you come as a family of four you will only be charged $250 for the entire weekend.

I’m hoping as we get closer to registration time (the beginning of May) more funding will come in and we will be able to reduce the registration fee.  There is no chance that it will be more that $250 but there is a chance it will go down! I will update this site immediately if/when that happens.

Remember, there are a limited number of scholarships available to help if this is going to be to much financially for you.  We would like to see everyone that wants to attend, be able to do so.  Please check out the “Scholarship” section of this blog for more information on how to apply.  Scholarships are being accepted until April 30, 2008.

For those families who are planning on making a “vacation” out of this, the resort will honor room prices for 2 days prior to the conference and 2 days after the conference. 

    1.  Studio    $119.00/night
    2.  Lodge Room  $129.00/night

    3.  1 Bedroom Condo $139.00/night

If you have any questions please feel free to email me at Heather@scidangelsforlife.com

I’ve decided to start updating the blog on a weekly basis, so please remember to check back frequently. Today is the deadline for funding, so I’m hoping to have the cost per family listed by next week. Without knowing how much money there will be in donations, I am unable to give an accurate number. As you can see by the sponsorship page we’ve had an excellent response to our request for funding support.

**Don’t forget to have your children enter the Logo contest…..there is a great CASH prize! Please check the “Contest” section for the rules and remember the deadline is quickly approaching. Thank you to those of you who have let me know your children are currently working on a design.
