Registration Add-Ons
On the Registration form, you will have the ability to select some "extras" beyond the standard boot camp experience.
ADD NIGHT IN THE DORM
We have made arrangements with UMass Amherst's conference services to allow campers to stay in the dorms on Tuesday night. The cost for the additional night is $50.
You must select the Tuesday night stay on the registration form, as we must provide a headcount to UMass Amherst Conference Services prior to the start of Boot Camp. If paying by check, you can add the $50 on to your registration fee. Otherwise, you will need to bring $50 in cash or a check to pay upon arrival.
OPTIONAL TOURS
There is no fee for the tours, but we do need to get a headcount for planning purposes.
