Activities


Based on the budget we have developed, it appears the conference fee will be $100 per attendee, which includes Lunch at The Basic School and the Banquet/Dinner at the Museum. So a party of two will owe $200, etc. This will need to be collected in advance because we need to pay the meal costs in advance. We will give more guidance on this payment shortly.


Guests are invited on all the bus trips. There are no alternate activities planned for them at this time. (You will need a government issued ID, with picture, to enter Quantico public-restricted areas, and you must ensure you and your guests have given us accurate name information for entry.)
