Q: What is included in the registration cost?
A: Registration includes the following: Welcome Reception, Seafood Bash, Sunday Gospel Supper, 75 th Anniversary Gala, Transportation, Commemorative Polo shirt, Welcome Gift Bag and Souvenir Journal
Q: If an individual is unable to participate in all the events, can they choose individual events to attend?
A: An individual can purchase tickets for two (2) events at the maximum. However, if you would like to purchase multiple tickets to 1 or 2 events for you and a group of friends you may do so.

A: A copy of the Souvenir Journal will be available for purchase at a nominal cost. The exact cost is unavailable currently.
Q: If an individual did not pay for full register, but would like transportation to the Seafood Bash or Sunday Gospel Supper, can they be included on the
transportation?

Please note a round-trip is to and from the host hotel. There are currently two (2) identified destinations where transportation will be provided (the Seafood Bash and the Worship Service/Sunday Gospel Supper); thus, the total cost of transportation if used to travel to both these events would be $40.00.
