The last day to register for a Conference Package is Sunday, March 19<\/strong>.\u00a0 The Package includes three seminars, a conference bag, woven nametag, and the three evening events for $395.\u00a0 This is a $70 savings over a la carte pricing for the same seminars and events.\u00a0 We hope you will take advantage of this opportunity to make the most out of your conference experience this June.<\/p>\n

If you have registered for a Conference Package, make sure that you signed up for the seminars you want. Some people were surprised to find they had not registered for seminars when they thought they had. There are also people who signed up for fewer than the three seminars included in the Conference Package.\u00a0\u00a0 Being on a wait list for a seminar does not count toward the limit of three. Let Janis Johnson the Conference Registrar know if you have questions or need help, by sending an email to registrar@anwgconference2023.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Registration system will not be available from Monday, March 20 through Sunday, March 26.\u00a0 Registration will open again at 7:00 AM PDT on Monday, March 27 with a la carte sales for seminars, the Shopping Extravaganza and Reception, the Banquet and Keynote Address, and Saturday\u2019s Reception and Fashion Show, plus all available workshops and meetings.<\/strong><\/p>\n
