Registration

Although registration is not available yet (coming in early December), we have some information which might be helpful now.  All registrations are due no later than Feb. 16, 2018We realize this early registration date is unusual for our attendees, but the Lake Arrowhead Conference Center is owned and managed by UCLA and they have special deadlines.  We will do our best to accommodate everyone. 

The professional registration fee will be $1100 (by Feb. 16).  The registration fee will include *all* costs for the 4-day meeting:  upscale lodging in semi-private accommodations (more info under LODGING), gourmet meals (breakfast and lunch buffets, 4-course dinners, all daily refreshments, and receptions), all meeting services (meeting space, A/V, internet, etc.), and all onsite recreational facilities.  Your registration fee also includes a tour of Big Bear Solar Observatory (with transportation to/from Lake Arrowhead).  The 4-day meeting registration fee after Feb. 16 will be $1350.  On the registration form you will be asked to provide information about dietary requirements, condo roommate preference (more info under LODGING), and Big Bear Solar Observatory participation.  Please note, that alcohol (beer and wine only) will be available at the 2018 Sun-Climate Symposium.  These beverages are optional and are not included in the meal per diem portion of the registration.

Online Registration:  The University of Colorado’s Conference Services Department is handling our meeting registration and credit card processing via their secure online system.  You will be provided with an immediate confirmation.  Onsite you will be provided with a detailed receipt that breaks down the costs for your expense reporting (lodging, meals, meeting facilities).  If you need to pay your registration fee with 2 different credit cards (govt. employees), that option is offered online as well.  At any time you can contact CU Conference Services directly at 303-492-5151 or email confreg@colorado.edu.
