If you are planning to stay and take meals at Champlain College, we urge you to register before July 13th.

T-SHIRT PRE-ORDERS
This year we are basing our t-shirt production run on pre-order numbers, and we'll have a very limited selection on hand at the event. So if you are interested in a t-shirt, please pre-order with your registration no later than July 13th.
PRIVATE LESSONS
Private lessons are still available with many of our instructors. The complete list can be found on our registration form.
That's it for the July update. We look forward to seeing you in Burlington in just a few weeks!
