We will open the lottery 12/4/24 at 11am central and close the lottery at 12/12/24 at 11am central. This is not a first come, first serve signup. If we have more entries of those that want to attend than available spots, we will pull entry numbers randomly. If your number isn’t chosen on the first round, we will automatically place you on the wait list. We regularly pull folkx from the wait list and will notify you if your number is pulled.

We will notify everyone of their status in the lottery pull by Monday December 16th.

ACCOMMODATIONS
At the request of the event center, we are requiring you book your own stay at Scarritt Bennett. We will provide you with details on how to do that and get our group rate in the welcome email if your entry is selected. Below is the overnight room cost for LAST YEAR – we anticipate that this year’s cost will be similar but do not have that information yet.

***Rooms will be $80.00 per person for twin bed room with a shared restroom (pre-tax price) $94.70 with tax included. You will be required to pay 1st night’s deposit at the time of booking. The remainder is paid at check-in. There is also a $25 cleaning fee added to the stay. Cancellation: As long as you cancel 48 hours in advance you will not be charged for the room. If you do not cancel, you will lose your deposit. Note that this is ONLY for the room – the deposit for attending the event itself is not refundable.
