There is still time to register.  We will probably be taking registrations up to the day before.  But, you must be registered to attend.  Download the registration and send it in or you can call it in with your credit card.  Thursday evening registration and Friday morning registration are to receive your name badges for the symposium and your room key if you are staying on campus.
Some questions we are receiving:
    I can't attend all three days, are there prices for each day.
            Yes, there is, Friday is $110.00; Saturday $135.00; and Sunday $110.00
      
    What are the class lengths?
             Intensives are $35.00 each and are 3 hour classes
             All other classes are one and half hours long.  There are a total of 43 classes available

    Where is Winona located?
            The symposium is at St. Mary's University in Winona, Minnesota.  It is in southeastern Minnesota 
            along the Mississippi River.  About 1 1/2 to 2 hours southeast from Minneapolis and St. Paul, 
            MN.  30 minutes north of LaCrosse, Wisconsin.  Its about 5 hours northeast of Chicago, IL.  An 
            eight hour drive from Ohio and Missouri.  U.S. Highway 61 goes right through Winona.  Going 
            north and south.

     Can I bring my children?
            We are sorry, but the college does not want to have children about.  Insurance reasons of course
            and with all the activity going on, it would be easier not to have them there.  The college is going to
            be very busy on Saturday.  They have another event going on that day also.
