The Conference Schedule (draft) has been slightly updated to reflect the FYA Drill team performance on Saturday.
We’re getting close to registration close, so please make sure that you’ve purchased the required meals if you’re staying on campus AND responded to the 2 recent email questions.
Lots of questions about “banquet only” tickets. If there’s room after registration close, we will open up some limited banquet only tickets. Remember that we’re adhering to smaller numbers for COVID distancing and not packing-in the banquet hall, so no guarantees.
