Desposits are still being accepted. Registration will continue until July 15th or the last space is filled.
Cost/Deadlines
Tentative trip cost is $140.00 150.00* ($170.00 as of July 1st)
This cost and what is covered is dependent on the Gaming Club's 2012-13 budget and the proceeds of our Silent Bed Auction (dates TBA--will be done via email for all trip participants). If anything changes, it will be hotel/food arrangements, and particpants will be notified as soon as possible if changes are necessary.
Tentatively, trip cost covers:
- convention registration
- hotel
- hot dinner in the hotel room on Thurs, Fri, Sat, Sun
- snacks, drinks, and sandwich supplies in each room (while supplies last)
Transportation is the responsibility of each participant.
$90.00 DEPOSIT DUE: Thursday, Feb. 9th* Anytime before July 15th*
FINAL PAYMENT DUE: July 15th
*Registered students who cannot attend may get a full refund up to 30 days prior to the convention if they find a replacement participant. The convention charges $20 to transfer registrations--this cost is the responsibility of the original particpant and/or the replacement participant. It will not be paid by the club.
Checks should be made out to: GHC Gaming Club. If the student's name is not the name on the check, please include the student's name on the For line.
We currently have space for 32 participants. Registration will be done on a first-come, first-served basis, but priority will be given to active club members (students and alumni). Alumni trip cost is $210.00 (student life funds cannot be used to cover hotel or food costs for alumni). Alumni may register after May 1st if space is still available.
