Room and Board

Room and board is available to workshop participants as a package. Those electing not to stay in housing may still purchase meals a la carte in the on-site cafe.
Weekend packages include 2 nights of lodging and 6 meals - lodging Friday and Saturday nights and meals beginning with dinner Friday and concluding with lunch Sunday. The fee is $220.
Weeklong packages include 5 nights of lodging and 15 meals - lodging Sunday-Thursday nights and meals beginning with dinner Sunday and concluding with lunch Friday. The fee is $550.
Each room is air-conditioned and contains two single beds and a restroom with shower.
ALL rooms are single rooms this year to maximize COVID precautions. If spouses wish to share a room, please note that in the "roommate preference" question. At this time, we are not allowing non-participants to stay in housing (a spouse who is not taking a workshop). If precautions change, we will update our policy.
Room and board is open to workshop participants while enrolled in a workshop or up to a day before or after the workshop.
Discounts are NOT available for room and board.
