2011 Registration Fees

This year's registration fees are posted in the table below by age group. TAF relies on donations each year to subsidize the actual costs (~$600pp) of running the summer conference, year-round activities, and providing Financial Aid assistance to those who need it. We appreciate your participation and support!

Age Full Week Weekend Only (2 nights)
13 years & up $490 $100 (or $60 for 1 night)

6-12 years $350 $60
Parents Program - $100 (or $60 for 1 night)

($5 extra per night after July 15)



Immediate Family Discount

Families sending more than one child will receive an automatic discount of $100 for each extra child (e.g. families sending 2 children get $100 off the total amount, families sending 3 children get $200 off, etc.). Friends, cousins, and other relatives do not qualify for this immediate family discount. When you register your household, the discount will automatically be applied to your total if you are registering more than one child.
