Scholarship/Refunds Information
A limited number of scholarships (financial assistance) are available to those newcomers who cannot afford the registration fee. The Committee requests that you write a letter/email stating your hardship at least 30 days prior to the event for evaluation.
REFUNDS
Due to the many costs associated with bringing the speakers to the conference NO REFUNDS, sorry. What we will do is either use it for scholarships or upon your request issue a credit good for two years.
WE PAY OUR OWN WAY
There are many AA events held around the country. One need only to read the Grapevine or the 459 to see the many roundups or conferences listed. One of the most common misconceptions of these gatherings is that they are not AA meetings. Conventions and conferences are special events, which require a substantial amount of money for expenses such as hotel facilities, coffee, printing, mailing, badges, speaker lodging, meals, and transportation. Like a regular AA meeting, this conference is self-supporting. No group monies are used for this event. The cost of this conference is paid for through solely through registration fees. No baskets are passed. No one is paid either, just expenses. All the folks who help put on these two conferences pay a registration fee to attend. Service work is optional but highly rewarding! Let us know if you would like to get involved.
