Re: 2014 VM Workshop attendee registration is open for all attendee types: regular, student, sponsor, and spouse!
Ken: Yes, you were registered and paid - you reserved a free polo shirt, and free banquet dinner, no dorm room reserved. Unless you want to turn down the free $65 Aggie debit card for food purchases in the cafeteria, you might want to log back on and add that to your shopping cart, and submit it, too. Tim: Yes, you were registered and paid - you reserved a free polo shirt, and free banquet dinner, a free $65 Aggie debit card for food purchases in the cafeteria, and 3 nights in private dorm room. Tuco: Yes, you were registered and paid - you reserved a free polo shirt, and free banquet dinner, a free $65 Aggie debit card for food purchases in the cafeteria, and 3 nights in 2-person dorm room. Each of you: Whoever registers an attendee should have received a Paypal receipt by e-mail. If not, please let me know by private e-mail.
