online registration
Online registration by credit card is the fastest and easiest way to register. It allows you to immediately which events (short courses, field trips, luncheons, tours, etc.) are available and if you are registered for an event. If an event is not available, it will not appear on the screen or it will indicate “sold out”.
Caution: Submit only one copy of your registration form. Be cautious when submitting your registration or making changes to your current registration. Charges may occur if you send more than one copy of a registration form.
Faxing or mailing your registration will delay this process and events may sell out while your registration is in transit.
To add an event after you have registered, follow the instructions under the heading "Policies". Please be careful not to regsiter online again, as this will result in applying duplicate charges.
