Prices and Other Details for the 18th Summer Texas Toot - 2016
|
June 12-18, 2016
Toot participants will be housed in Concordia's Residence
Hall dorm (location H on
the campus map...)
The accommodations are 2-person suites with private bath, and
furnished with a small-size refrigerator and a microwave.
NOTE a change!
Beginning in 2015, Concordia is no longer providing linens.
Texas Toot has purchased a limited
number of linen sets (sheets, towels, blanket, pillow) that will be
available for rent ($25 for the week), but participants who are able are
encouraged to bring your own linens. The beds are extra-long twin (XL twin).
If you prefer not to stay in a dorm, there
are numerous hotels in the surrounding area.
Concordia's dining facility was completely revamped in 2015!
It was already quite good, offering a variety of fresh and prepared
foods, as well as accommodating vegetarian diets and other special
dietary requirements. We expect the new facility will be even better.
A "commuter" meal plan is offered (lunches and dinners only),
in order to encourage commuters to take advantage of the fellowship,
conversation, and convenience of the on-campus facilities —
all valuable aspects of the workshop experience.
Deadline for registration (if housing and/or meals are
required) is May 21, 2016 —
Do-It-Now early registration ends April 25! |
Tuition |
$440 per person "Do-It-Now" tuition (if
registration and deposit are received by April 25) OR
$495 per person if registration and deposit are received
after April 25
$10 discount for ARS, VdGSA, and EMA members
Bring-a-Friend tuition discount: Invite someone new
to come to the Summer Toot! Once he/she registers, you are entitled
to a 20% discount on your tuition (10% if this person has attended
a Toot before, but has been absent for 5 or more years.)
|
|
Conference Fee |
This year, there will be a $55 administrative and
facility use fee (not subject to discount) for all participants,
whether staying on- or off-campus.
This fee will be added in as you make your registration payment; there
is no need to write a separate check to Concordia University Texas.
|
|
NOTE: Final Housing and Meal prices have been established.
The single room price is dramatically higher than in past years, due to a
pricing restructure by our venue. Double room and meal prices are only modestly
higher than before.
