NOTE: Jan 13: The T-shirt order has been placed and we have almost sold out of shirts, so we’re moving to a $25 Workshop Only ticket. If there are unsold shirts at the event, you can check this sales table to purchase one. Meals are not included. We recommend bringing a bag lunch for the lunch break and then heading out for dinner in downtown Harrisonburg between 4:30-6:30 p.m. Vending machines for drinks and minimal snacks (chips and candy bars) are available in the Forbes Center near our Workshop room.
