join us.
The cost this year for students remains the same as last year...$99. You

on file in 2011. We will have tables set up in the Welcome Center
beginning Sunday, September 18, for you to register on Sunday or

Please return the completed registration form, payment of $99, and the
Cool Spring medical form, if not already on file, by September 28 to
