PRESCHOOL CHILDCARE
Childcare for newborns through 3-year-olds will be available from Sunday evening through Wednesday, June 12-15. (For older children, see children's conference below.) There is a non-refundable registration fee of $10 per child for preschool care. This fee is in addition to the session fees for the convention. The cost per session is $5 per child, not to exceed $40 per family, plus the $10 non-refundable registration fee. Lunch also will be available for preschoolers on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday at $5 per meal. Complete payment is due for all sessions, and lunch if selected, no later than arrival at the first session.
Registration is being handled exclusively online at www.sbcannualmeeting.net.
To assure that your child is registered, applications and fees must be submitted promptly. Once the completed forms and registration fee for each child are received, a confirmation packet, parent handbook, security information and procedures for check-in and check-out will be sent via email to the parent. The materials also will include information about preschool policies, hours of operation, fees and other forms.
The deadline for preschool childcare registration is June 1 and is limited to 150 children per session. Parents wanting to register their children after June 1 may print the required information and bring it to Phoenix, where they will be registered on-site on a space-available basis. Questions about this year's childcare can be directed to childcare@sbc.net.
