The conference fee is $500 per student, which includes lodging, meals at CONA, program costs, and conference photo. This DOES NOT include transportation. Students should bring between $30 and $40 for meals to and from CONA and any incidentals students may want to purchase at CONA, including a conference DVD.

We will make a final decision on transportation arrangements after March 1st. Depending on how many students plan to attend, we may either bus or fly to North Carolina for CONA. The average cost per person will probably be anywhere from $250 to $300 for transportation costs. This cost is in addition to the $500 program fee.

After students are selected, a $200 non-refundable deposit will be due. The remaining balance of $300 is due by May 1, 2011.

Checks should be made out to Missouri YMCA Youth In Government and sent to P.O. Box 104176, Jefferson City, MO, 65110. We will mail one payment to CONA for all students. Fees are non-refundable once they are paid to Missouri YMCA Youth In Government.

Missouri YMCA Youth In Government will send 2-3 adult advisors, which are required to chaperone the event.
